As a Apps for Education administrator, I believe this service would be extremely beneficial to our campus. As it stands, it appears that Short Links is no longer via the Marketplace but is still usable for those that installed it before it was pulled? If that is the case, is there some back-door way of getting it installed outside of the Marketplace?

If Short Links is dead, has there been an official announcement that I missed?

Thanks for any information you can provide.

Hi Chris, 

I'm a humble user and for sure I appreciate this particular app a lot. 
Fortunately i got it installed in my account and my only concern is to access to the configuration interface (which also disappears from the new interface) but there's a shortcut to access it (see: HERE
Y guess that is possible that with the correct App ID you can try to install it trough the Other Services section in App Engine Apps admin area. I can't test it 'cause I got it already installed but based in the configuration interface url in my system "appId=shortlinks" may be the App ID to be entered is just shortlinks. I know... is a long shot but you can try it.
If it doesn't work :-(as I think) may be another member of this group know (or can find) the appropriate App ID to get this invaluable app.

Admin ALP, that is the first helpful comment made in a long time. If the App ID can be determined, then this may resolve the issue for all apart from making the additional correct DNS change to activate it by URL. This is the other part of the answer that must be executed for proper functionality. Group viewers who read this should take upon themselves to find the answer to part one:

What is the App Engine ID to manually add shortlinks from the backend Admin dashboard?

On a domain with no Shortlinks, tried  http://google.com/a/your_domain.com/LabServiceSettings?appId=shortlinks (yes, replaced your_domain with my own), but that redirects to this URL:


which redirects to this URL:


I recall this being tried before too with same failure
