YOURLS self-hosted URL shortener
YOURLS (Your Own URL Shortener) is the self-hosted PHP URL shortener — install on your own server, get a bit.ly equivalent under your own domain. Tiny Command exposes one action, no triggers: List Items (recent links). The connection takes the YOURLS instance URL plus a signature token. For "I want bit.ly functionality without paying bit.ly" patterns, YOURLS is the longstanding free option. PHP-based, MySQL-backed, runs on minimal infrastructure (shared hosting works fine). For modern self-hosted alternatives with cleaner UX, Dub (Node.js, open-source) is increasingly the recommended pick. For longstanding YOURLS-using setups, this works; for new self-hosted shortening, evaluate Dub.

Tiny Command counts a run the moment a trigger fires. Filtering early means only matching events spend your usage budget.
Connect Yourls once and every workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. You don't have to re-auth per workflow.
Every Yourls field shows up in the visual picker for downstream nodes. The raw payload is there for power users, optional for everyone else.
