To save character when replying to a support question on social media or Play Store review, you can shorten the link of your reference article. Here is how to get a shortened mzl.la link.

Mzl.la link only generated when the original link is from a Mozilla domain.

How to find mzl.la link for an article

Mzl.la links are generated automatically for kb article URLs without language code. This is to make sure that the person would be redirected to the localized version based on their browser locale.

  1. Go to the article page (in any SUMO locale).
  2. Scroll down to the bottom of the article text.
  3. Copy the https://mzl.la/xxxxxxx URL after Share this article:.
    If you don't see this line under a SUMO article, your adblocker may be responsible.

How to generate mzl.la link

If you need to shorten a link for a specific locale, another SUMO page, or any page in the Mozilla domain, you can generate online a mzl.la shortened link on the Bitly website.
