### [ShareX](https://github.com/ShareX/ShareX) Configuration

This URL Shortener has fully support with ShareX. To use it, just import the configuration to your ShareX. For that you need to open the `Destination settings` => `Other / Custom uploaders` => `Import` => `From Clipboard`.

After you've done this, you need to set it as your standard URL Shortener. For that go back into your main menu => `Destinations` => `URL Shortener` => `Custom URL Shortener`.

```json
{
  "Name": "Golang URL Shortener",
  "DestinationType": "URLShortener",
  "RequestType": "POST",
  "RequestURL": "http://127.0.0.1:8080/api/v1/create",
  "Arguments": {
    "URL": "$input$"
  },
  "ResponseType": "Text",
  "URL": "$json:URL$"
}
```
