Build a self-hosted URL shortener with a dashboard

n8n template #1093
This workflow creates an automatic self-hosted URL shortener. It consists of three sub-workflows: Short URL creation for extracting the provided long URL, generating an ID, and saving the record in the database. It returns a short link as a result. Redirection for extracting the ID value, validating the existence of its correspondent record in the database, and returning a redirection page after updating the visits (click) count. Dashboard for calculating simple statistics about the saved record and displaying them on a dashboard.
