# UnshortenMe

{% hint style="info" %}
UnshortenMe is a tooling integration. Tooling Data Source integrations are used during investigations to improve analysis and in interactive chat to help answer questions. They are optional, but enabling more tooling integrations enhances Dropzone analysis.
{% endhint %}

The Dropzone platform integrates with [UnshortenMe](https://unshorten.me/) to resolve shortened links, which are often used to hide the actual targets of malicious URLs.
