# External link shortcut

**Published on March 28, 2025**

Many of you asked for it — it's here! The **external link shortcut** (URL) is now available.

This feature lets you easily insert links to external sites directly from your homepage. Whether you want quick access to your intranet or to a tool page that's essential to your activity, this feature is for you.

Simply click **Add a shortcut**, select **External link**, and you're done. In just a few clicks, you can customize your homepage to include the links you need, improving your efficiency and productivity.

{% hint style="info" %}
The URL is currently limited to 250 characters. This limit will be increased soon. In the meantime, you can use a URL shortener such as [urlr.me](https://urlr.me/).

See the [Shortcuts](https://www.center.daxium-air.com/user-documentation/build/building-the-platform/organising-the-platform/shortcuts) documentation for more details.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://www.center.daxium-air.com/news/2025/external-link-shortcut.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
