  4. Add Shorten URL to your automation

    Wherever your automation has the product link, add the Holdout step Shorten URL. There are two ways to do it.

    Ask Botize to build it

    Describe the task in My Tasks, in one sentence. For example:

    When I share an Amazon product link, shorten it with Holdout using the product title and price, and post it to my Telegram channel.

    It answers with the steps it will use, the Holdout one included, and which product data goes into each field.

    The Botize assistant proposing a task: Amazon Associates, then Holdout Shorten URL with the title and price, then Telegram

    It also works from ChatGPT or Claude. Automate from your own AI

    Or add the step yourself

    Choose Holdout, then Shorten URL, and pick the channel from the list. Only Long URL and the channel are required.

    The Shorten URL step in Botize: Long URL, then Channel with the list of your Holdout channels open, then Post text and Price

    Coming from Amazon Associates “Get product information”? Use Title for the offer title, Current Price for the price (not the display amount, which carries the currency symbol), Original Price for the original price, Current Price:Currency for the currency and Product Group for the category.

    Fill in the offer title and the price. They are optional, but without them Holdout cannot compare your offers, so suggestions and Try a product never switch on. Only you see them.

  5. Post the Short URL

    Use the step's Short URL in your message instead of the long link. On an iPhone it opens the Amazon app, where people are already signed in.

    Want your own domain in the link?

Then, on Holdout
