Google short extension | Test phase

[Mika]

Hello,
I have a new test extension for you all.
After a successful test phase this extension will be a component here in our great builder.

What can you do with this extension?
You can shortening url links with the help of the google shortening api.
A short url looks after a convert like this:
https://goo.gl/WQjxt5

That’s not all…!
You can too convert back short links into a normal url
