Shortcodes

A shortcode is a short, unique code in a URL. 2mee uses two kinds.

Card shortcode

A deployed card’s own global short id, which doubles as its public URL key. Resolving it by direct lookup returns everything needed to render the card: account branding and template.

Format. Base-62 and case-sensitive (A1a is not a1A) over 0-9 a-z A-Z, allocated sequentially from a1:

Length	Capacity
2 chars	3,844 ids
3 chars	~238k
4 chars	~14.7M
5 chars	~916M
6 chars	~56.8B

Codes are as short as possible and grow only as the space fills. Because they’re allocated from a counter, they never collide.

Participant shortcode

A personal link for a named participant progressing through an experience — for example s.2mee.com/p98765 — with session and expiry handling. Opening it resolves to that person’s place in their experience.

Using shortcodes

• Card links are what you publish or share to open a hosted card.
• Participant links are what a campaign sends to each contact.

Note

A card shortcode is stable across re-deploys, so links you’ve shared keep working when you update the experience and re-deploy.
