How to use Superlinks
Superlinks are a helpful tool for filling in automation gaps based on subscriber interaction with your content.
Essentially, they allow you to add tags, remove tags or update meta fields to a contact record when that contact clicks a specific link!
A use case for Superlinks
Let’s say you send out a broadcast email with a call to action (CTA). You want to tag everyone who clicked the CTA link with the tag “Clicked CTA,” you would use a Superlink to tag the contact and then redirect them to the intended destination of your CTA.
Create a Superlink
To create a superlink go to Groundhogg > Superlinks and click the [ Add New ] button at the top. A pop-up will appear.
Give your Superlink a name and click the [ Create link ] button.
Select which options you would like applied. You can add tags, remove tags or update meta data to the contact when they click the link.
*This needs to be an existing tag.
Edit a Superlink
If you want to change the target URL or the options with a Superlink search it by name and click on it in the table on the right.
You can then edit any Superlink settings.
Embed a Superlink
You can use Superlinks anywhere on your site!

All you have to do is copy the Source URL or the Replacement Code and use them appropriately.
You can copy the Source URL and use it as a regular link in place of the actual Target URL.
You can also use the replacement code anywhere replacements are accepted.
Note: the replacement code will simply embed the Source URL. There is no functional difference.
