Posted on Jun 15, 2025

Important Considerations

  1. Your URL will stop working after 5 minutes if you host other services on the same account. My suggestion is to create multiple accounts for each service, as Render has an instance time limit per month.
  2. You need to have a Discord account and a Discord server.
  3. You can’t deactivate URLs after they have been sent.
  4. There is a web UI to help you set up links.
  5. Feel free to disguise this as an image hosting site.

How to Set Up

  1. Create a new web service.

  2. Click on “Build and deploy from a Git repository.”

  3. Click “Next.”

  4. Scroll down until you see “Public Git repository.”

  5. Paste in this URL: https://github.com/eli32-vlc/ip-logger.git

  6. Click on “Continue.”

  7. Change “Instance Type” to “Free.”

  8. Scroll to “Environment Variables.”

  9. Log in to Discord, create a new server, and generate a webhook for that server.

  10. Click “Add from .env” and paste the following:

    URL_SHORTENER_USERNAME=‘Admin Username’ URL_SHORTENER_PASSWORD=‘Admin Password’ DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL=‘WEBHOOK’

  11. Replace 'Admin Username' with your own username.

  12. Replace 'Admin Password' with your own password.

  13. Replace 'WEBHOOK' with your Discord webhook URL.

  14. Click on “Deploy Web Service.”

  15. Click the link and log in.
