# Create Tracking Links via the Chrome Extension
Once you've [set up the impact.com Chrome extension](/partner/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/platform-features/tracking/tracking-links/create-and-manage-links/chrome-extension/impactcom-for-chrome-extension-overview.md), you can begin creating tracking links for brands with which [you're partnered](/partner/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/platform-features/working-with-brands/applying-to-brands/find-and-apply-to-brands.md). You can also [manage your chrome extension's settings](/partner/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/platform-features/tracking/tracking-links/create-and-manage-links/chrome-extension/manage-your-chrome-extension-settings.md).

## Choose a product to promote
There are 2 ways to get started:
{% tabs %}
{% tab title="From the product page" %}
You can start creating tracking links from any product page using the extension.
1. Navigate to the product page you want to promote.
* Depending on your [notification settings](/partner/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/platform-features/tracking/tracking-links/create-and-manage-links/chrome-extension/manage-your-chrome-extension-settings.md#set-notifications-for-earning-opportunities), a pop up may appear in the upper-right corner if the website domain matches one on the impact.com platform to which you have permission to create a link.
* Alternatively, in the upper-right corner of your browser panel, select the  **\[impact.com logo]**.
{% endtab %}
{% tab title="You already have a product URL" %}
If you already have a URL to a product page, you can paste it in your extension to start creating tracking links.
1. From any webpage, in the upper-right corner of your browser panel, select the **\[impact.com logo].**
* If you don't see the *Paste URL* field, select  **\[Back]**.
2. Paste the product link into the *Paste URL* field and select **Submit**.
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
{% hint style="warning" %}
**Warning**: The extension stops you if the product page or URL already has tracking information attached, such as a page you reached by selecting an existing tracking link. A link created from that URL may not credit you for the sales you drive. Close the message, then start again from the brand's original product page address.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
## Choose your program
1. Select one of the brand's programs from the **Program**  **\[Drop-down menu]**.
* If you have multiple program options here, you can select  **\[Star] → Set as Default** to auto-select a specific program when visiting the brand's page in future.
2. Optionally, you can create tracking links for campaigns and tasks by selecting a campaign. This option will only be available if you're participating in active campaigns.
* In the *Task* section, use the  **\[Drop-down menu]** to choose the task with which this link should be associated.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
## Add reporting parameters
1. To add reporting parameters to your tracking link, select **Advanced**  **\[Expand]**.
* Set your [Sub ID and Shared ID parameters](/partner/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/platform-features/tracking/tracking-links/link-parameters/sub-id-and-shared-id-parameters-explained-for-partners.md).
* If you intend to share the link on a specific media property, select the relevant option from the **Media Property**  **\[Drop-down menu]**. This will let you easily identify which media property was responsible for link traffic in reporting.
* If you have multiple media property options here, you can select  **\[Star] → Set as Default** to auto-select a specific property when visiting the brand's page in future.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
## Create your link
1. Select **Create Link**.
* You can create a [vanity link](/partner/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/platform-features/tracking/tracking-links/create-and-manage-links/create-a-vanity-link.md) by selecting  **\[Edit]** and editing the slug (the text after the forward slash). Select  **\[Check]** to save your changes, or select  **\[Exit]** to exit the editing mode.
2. Once your link is created, select  **\[Copy]** and share your link with your audience.
{% endstep %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.
## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://help.impact.com/partner/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/platform-features/tracking/tracking-links/create-and-manage-links/chrome-extension/create-tracking-links-via-the-chrome-extension.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
