Short Link Generator
- Browser-based
- Server-powered
- No signup
Enter a long http(s) URL to create a compact Utilnivo short link such as /s/xY7kQ2m when the short-link Worker is configured. Codes are stored in Cloudflare KV and redirects run at the edge. Without the Worker, the tool falls back to an encoded /go/# link that carries the destination in the hash (may be longer). Only http and https destinations are allowed.

Worked example

How it works
Enter a long http(s) URL. In TinyURL mode (Cloudflare Worker + KV), the tool stores a short code and returns a compact link like /s/xY7kQ2m. Visitors hitting that path are redirected with HTTP 302. If the Worker is not configured, encoded fallback mode embeds the destination in a /go/# hash (no database; links may be longer). Only http and https destinations are allowed.
Limitations
Results are based on the inputs you provide and may not cover every edge case. This tool is for general use and is not professional advice.

Frequently asked questions
How does TinyURL mode work?
When the short-link Worker is configured, a random code is stored in Cloudflare KV and you get a compact link like /s/xY7kQ2m. Opening that path redirects to the original URL.
What if the Worker is not configured?
The tool uses encoded fallback mode: the destination is embedded in a /go/# hash. Those links work without a database but may be longer than the original URL.
Is javascript: or data: allowed?
No. Only http:// and https:// destinations are accepted for safety.
