I would much rather use their API but im also struggling with that, However, this will method will work just wont be pretty , My Ultimate Goal is to shorten my Amazon links if theirs a easier way please let me know

This is what im trying to accomplish from this website this is the example they provide

If your target product URL is:

http://www. amazon .com/21-Adele/dp/ B004EBT5CU/

Once you URL encode that, it becomes:

http%3A%2F%2Fwww. amazon .com%2F21-Adele%2Fdp%2FB004EBT5CU%2F

this will be the final result :arrow_heading_down:

http://buy.geni.us/Proxy.ashx?TSID=yourTSIDhere&GR_URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww. amazon .com%2F21-Adele%2Fdp%2FB004EBT5CU%2F (spaces in link so it wont show the pictureof site)

Looks like there’s already a built-in function for that: encodeURL()

{{ encodeURL("http://www.amazon.com/21-Adele/dp/B004EBT5CU/") }}
