I've used the short links lab before and think it's awesome. I've recently set it up on a new google apps for business account and can't find the setting to change the redirect if I access the short URL without any link. This used to work beautifully - ie if I go to http://links.domain.com instead of http://links.domain.com/link then I'm redirected elsewhere.

Also the short links lab doesn't show up in the admin console which is frustrating.

But this feature is awesome! Please don't retire it!

Hi Chris!

Thank you! Unfortunately, a change in the Google Apps Admin Console (http://admin.google.com) has made it temporarily impossible to get to the domain settings page for Short Links. It's also why it doesn't show up in the admin console - Google Apps for Business is moving towards a new model of applications based on the Chrome Web Store.

While I can't make any promises (Short Links is a 'Labs' project so comes with no guarantees) - it is an issue we are very much aware of and trying to fix.

Thank you for your understanding!
Danut
