Slug conflicts

Fix OmniLab Smart Link save errors caused by a slug that is already in use somewhere in your organisation.

A OmniLab Smart Link will not save because the slug you entered is already used somewhere in your organisation. Here is how to find the clash and choose a slug that saves.

To find an existing link, use search and filters in the Links view, or compare links across the organisation in the Reports view. Open either from the left navigation.

Symptom

You create or edit a OmniLab Smart Link, enter a slug, and OmniLab will not accept it because that public name is already taken.

Likely causes

How to avoid repeated conflicts

  • agree on one slug naming style across the organisation
  • include the placement or channel when several links point to similar destinations
  • disable and clean up old test links once they are no longer needed
  • use folders to organise links, but never to make a slug unique
