Actions

What your agents can do in Bitly

12 actions. Each one is a tool your agents can call and a step your workflows can run.

Read 9

Look things up. Nothing changes.

  • Get the signed-in user

    Reads the Bitly user the token belongs to: login, name, emails, is_active and default_group_guid (the group links go into unless another is named).

  • List groups

    Lists the groups (workspaces) the user belongs to.

  • Get a Bitlink

    Reads one Bitlink by its domain and hash (bit.ly/3AbCdEf is domain bit.ly, hash 3AbCdEf): link, id, long_url, title, archived, tags, created_at and created_by.

  • Expand a Bitlink

    Finds where a Bitlink goes, from its domain and hash.

  • Find Bitlinks in a group

    Lists a group's Bitlinks, newest first, optionally matching a search term (title, URL, tags), tags, or created between two Unix times; archived links are left out unless asked.

  • Get total clicks

    Counts a Bitlink's clicks over the last N days, weeks or months (or all time with units -1), by domain and hash.

  • Get clicks over time

    A Bitlink's clicks per day, week, month or hour over the last N units, by domain and hash.

  • Get clicks by country

    A Bitlink's clicks by the clicker's country over the last N units, by domain and hash, most first.

  • Get clicks by referrer

    A Bitlink's clicks by where the click came from (a site, an app, or direct) over the last N units, by domain and hash, most first.

Write 3

Create, change or send.

  • Shorten a link

    Makes a short link (a Bitlink) for a long URL, optionally with a title, tags, a custom short domain the group owns (bit.ly by default) and a group (the user's default group otherwise).

  • Update a Bitlink

    Changes a Bitlink's title, tags (replaces the list) or archived flag (archived links still redirect but are hidden in lists), by domain and hash.

  • Make a QR code

    Makes a Bitly QR code in a group that opens a long URL or an existing Bitlink (give one of them), with an optional title and tags.

A person can approve first

Any write action can be set to wait for a person's approval before it runs, so an agent asks before it changes anything.

Connection

How it connects

Connect it once in the console, then give it to the agents and workflows that need it.

API key

Paste an API key from your Bitly account.

What you enter

  • Access token

Kept safe

  • Credentials are stored encrypted with your organization's own keys.
  • They are opened only by the process that makes the call, at the moment it runs, and never go into a prompt or the browser.
  • Calls go only to the tool's own servers.

How we protect your data

Ideas

Ideas to start with

Starting points made only from the actions above. Mix them with any other tool your agents can use.

  • 01

    Ask about your Bitly data

    Ask a question in plain words. The agent can get the signed-in user, list groups or get a Bitlink in Bitly, then answers with what it found.

  • 02

    Let an agent update Bitly

    Have the agent update a Bitlink in Bitly as part of a larger task. Turn on approval and a person signs off on each change first.

  • 03

    Share what it finds in Slack

    Give one agent Bitly and Slack: it can get the signed-in user in Bitly and post a summary to a Slack channel in the same run.
