• By default, a user can get the counts for Views and Last viewed. When a user enables the Track User option, the Unique clicks counts can be viewed.
• Views - A total number of clicks on a Shortened URL. For example, if a Shortened URL is clicked 5 times in a message, then the Views count will be 5.
• Unique clicks - The count of total unique clicks by a recipient. For example, if a URL Shortener is clicked 5 times by a recipient, then the unique click will be one based on the recipient.
• Last viewed - When the shortened URL was clicked in the last instance.
• These Views, Unique clicks counts, and Last viewed date are for shortened URLs and are not related to Email.
