Understand the status
Checking can take longer when a destination redirects through one or more
hops, uses a known shortener, responds slowly, or cannot be reached. Biqli must
evaluate the discovered hops and final destination. If every required check
cannot finish, Biqli keeps the result pending or reports that it cannot verify
the destination; it does not treat uncertainty as a safe result.
What is checked
Checks can include URL structure and network restrictions, Biqli policy rules, current reputation signals, and redirect behavior. Biqli also checks alternate targeting and expiration destinations because a visitor can reach them instead of the default URL. Biqli does not publish the private rule sources, thresholds, cache details, or evidence used to prevent evasion. The dashboard and decision email provide the actionable reason you need without exposing those controls. Existing destinations can be checked again. A link that previously cleared can be disabled later if the site changes, becomes compromised, introduces a new redirect, or receives a new safety warning.Fix a disabled destination
- Open the Disabled badge and review its message.
- Confirm the destination URL is correct and the site has not been compromised.
- Remove unexpected redirects, unsafe scripts, or third-party content.
- Check the default, targeting, and expiration destinations.
- If you believe the result is wrong, select Request review in the badge.
Request a review
Enter why you believe the result is incorrect and submit the appeal. Biqli rechecks the blocked destination on the server; you cannot replace it in the request. Only one open appeal is kept for the same destination host and safety result. If no short link exists yet, an approval lets you retry link creation instead of creating a link automatically. An administrator reviews the destination and current safety evidence. You will receive an email when the review is complete:- Kept disabled: the email explains why an existing link remains disabled, or why a destination still cannot be used to create a link.
- Exception approved: Biqli grants a time-limited exception only for the reviewed host and internal policy result. An existing link returns to Checking… for a fresh end-to-end scan. If no link exists yet, retry link creation; all remaining safety checks still run. While the exception is active, future links to the same host can bypass that same internal result.
QR codes and Biolinks
Dynamic standalone QR codes use the managed safety lifecycle: a pending code is unavailable, and a blocked destination disables the code. A QR attached to a short link follows the parent link’s status. Static QR content is embedded in the downloaded image. Biqli checks supported URL fields when the static QR is saved, but cannot change or disable copies after download. Ordinary tracked links on a Biolink use the link safety lifecycle. Biolink buttons and media destinations that are stored directly on the page are checked when saved; unsafe items are not made available to visitors. See Manage Biolink links.Never include hosting passwords, API keys, or other secrets in an appeal.
