Example data

All people, links, events, and metrics shown here are deterministic example data.

Open a managed link’s Clicks tab to inspect retained raw events with their timestamp, country, device, referrer, and traffic classification. Use the log to investigate a specific redirect while it is still inside the retention window; raw rows default to about one day and older partitions are dropped.

  • Read-only per-link click log
  • Timestamp, country, device, referrer, and traffic type
  • Keyset pagination with a bounded retained window

What this feature does

Inspect the click behind the aggregate.

Open a managed link’s Clicks tab to inspect retained raw events with their timestamp, country, device, referrer, and traffic classification. Use the log to investigate a specific redirect while it is still inside the retention window; raw rows default to about one day and older partitions are dropped.

Use this capability when you need more control than a basic short URL provides.

Implementation and operating details

The workflow stays attached to the short link, so you can manage the destination and its rules without replacing the URL already in circulation.

  • Read-only per-link click log
  • Timestamp, country, device, referrer, and traffic type
  • Keyset pagination with a bounded retained window

How it works

01

Open link details

Choose a managed short link and open its detail view from the dashboard.

02

Select the Clicks tab

The read-only viewer loads the retained raw events for that link, with a bounded page size.

03

Filter and investigate

Filter the retained window and open an event to compare request context without waiting for an aggregate report.

Operational guide

How DrutoLink processes it

The link detail view reads retained raw Click rows for one managed link, applies the selected time range, and returns a bounded keyset-paginated log with request context such as time, country, device, referrer, and traffic classification.

Understand the signals, processing order, fallback, and checks that matter before you rely on this capability.

Required inputs and signals

Configuration input
Open a managed short link’s detail view and select Clicks.
Signals and connected controls
Aggregate analytics, live activity, campaigns, safety filtering, and link controls

Decision, fallback, and common mistakes

Raw rows are available only during the retention window, which defaults to about one day. Older partitions are dropped and cannot be recovered; the viewer is not a permanent event archive or conversion record.

This capability is available now. Results still depend on visitor signals, destination availability, campaign setup, and the quality of the traffic being measured.

Practical setup checklist

  1. 01 Open link details. Choose a managed short link and open its detail view from the dashboard.
  2. 02 Select the Clicks tab. The read-only viewer loads the retained raw events for that link, with a bounded page size.
  3. 03 Filter and investigate. Filter the retained window and open an event to compare request context without waiting for an aggregate report.

Why teams use it

Investigate one redirect without losing the event-level context
Separate likely human, bot, and blocked requests while reviewing a link
Reconcile a live incident with the aggregate analytics view
Keep raw inspection read-only and bounded by retention
Use the retained log for debugging, campaign QA, and support investigations

Measurement and reporting

Review click activity and the relevant link, campaign, audience, or variant breakdowns in DrutoLink analytics. Use consistent UTM parameters when results must also be reconciled with destination-side analytics.

What you can evaluate

Investigate one redirect without losing the event-level context · Separate likely human, bot, and blocked requests while reviewing a link · Reconcile a live incident with the aggregate analytics view

How to interpret results

A redirect click confirms that the link served a destination. It does not by itself prove a signup, purchase, or qualified visit. Compare the same date range and traffic definition before making a decision.

Current status and limitations

Available

This capability is available now. Results still depend on visitor signals, destination availability, campaign setup, and the quality of the traffic being measured.

Important boundary

Use the default destination and documented fallback behavior for cases where a rule cannot be evaluated. Test important links from representative devices and networks before broad distribution.

What does the raw click viewer show? It shows retained Click rows for one managed link, including available timestamp, country, device, referrer, and traffic classification context.

Best use cases

Practical examples

These are common situations where the capability can reduce manual link changes or make reporting easier to understand.

  • 01 Confirm which device and referrer produced an unexpected click
  • 02 Investigate a spike before the raw retention window closes
  • 03 Review campaign or newsletter traffic event by event
  • 04 Compare a suspicious request with the link’s aggregate totals

Is this the right fit?

Choose this feature when

You need one controlled short URL, a repeatable operating workflow, and reporting that stays connected to the link. Investigate one redirect without losing the event-level context

Use another approach when

Your requirement depends on a capability marked partial or planned, requires identity-level certainty, or needs conversion attribution that must be measured in the destination product.
