Managing Partner Access To Tracking, Smart, & Impression Links

This feature allows you to hide tracking links from the Partner UI, so that Partners cannot pull these links by themselves.

Overview

Partner tracking link access is an important security feature that gives you control over how Partners interact with tracking links.

Instead of Partners pulling links directly from their portal, you can hide specific types of links and manage their distribution manually.

This article explains which links you can hide, how to configure these settings, and what partners will see in their portal after changes are made.
