POST
Checks whether a custom short-URL slug is free before you commit to it.
Requires the CUSTOM_URL_HASH quota.
string
required
The candidate slug: 3–50 characters, az, AZ, 09, _, and -.
integer
Custom-domain primary key to check against. Omit for the default short domain.
boolean
Read-only — the availability verdict in the response.
Availability is domain-scoped — the same slug can be free on one custom domain and taken on another, so always send the domain you intend to publish on. A successful check is not a reservation: the slug is only yours once a QR Code claims it.

Authorizations

Authorization
string
header
required

Send your Management API key as the raw value of the Authorization header — no "Bearer " or "Token " prefix, and no other characters. Example: Authorization: 401f7ac837da42b97f613d789819ff93537bee6a. A header containing more than one space-separated part is rejected outright. Requests also require the request's Host header to be the management API host (e.g. api.scanova.io) — the same key sent to the regular API host will not authenticate.

Response

The slug is available.
