How To Use is.gd API In VB.Net

 We Will See How To Implementing is.gd API In Visual Basic.NET (VB.NET) In This Post



Steps :

Create A New  VB.Net Project Using Microsoft Visual Studio. Add 2 Label , 2 TextBox ['myurl' for accepting link from user and 'outputurl' for showing short link] and 2 Buttons As Shown Below





When We Will Click On 'Short URL' Button , The Program Is Supposed To Check Whether Their Is Internet Connection Available Or Not As It Will Require Network While Using is.gd API. So If Their Is No Internet Connection Available , It Will Show A Message That You Don't Have An Active Connection And The Process Will Terminate Their. Use Following Code For This Purpose.

CODE :



After That We Have To Check That Whether The TextBox [Named As 'myurl'] Is Blank Or Not. If It Is Blank , Then We Have To Show A Message Something Link Enter Any Link To Short The Link. If There Is Already Any Link There In 'myurl' TextBox , Then We Will Proceed To Short The Link Using is.gd API As We Have Done In PHP

is.gd  API : https://is.gd/create.php?format=simple&url=your_url_here

 Replace 'your_url_here' With Your Desired Link

CODE :



Now For 'Copy Code' Button , We Will Again Check That The Output TextBox [Named 'outputurl'] Must Not Be Blank. After That We Will Copy Its Text By SelectAll() & Copy() Function

CODE :



In This Way , We Can Create Our Own Link Shortener Of is.gd Using API In VB.NET
