Linkme Social Grid Item Link API Documentation

GET https://scrappa.co/api/link-in-bio/linkme/social-grid/go?item_id=24

Scrappa's GET /api/link-in-bio/linkme/social-grid/go endpoint resolves the outbound destination of a single Linkme social-grid item from its numeric item_id.

This endpoint is opt-in and off by default: resolving a profile's destinations costs one additional upstream call per item, so each destination is a separate, separately accounted request rather than something bundled into the profile lookup.

There are two ways it can answer without a destination, and both are non-billable. An item that has been removed returns a not-found result. An item whose upstream answer carries no redirect returns a successful but empty result with no url key at all, so treat a missing url as "no destination" rather than assuming the key is always present.

An existing profile with nothing configured answers with HTTP 200 and an empty result. That response is not billable, and its meta.reason explains which case applied.
