How to connect Bitly and Cloze
Create a New Scenario to Connect Bitly and Cloze
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Bitly, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Bitly or Cloze will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Bitly or Cloze, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Bitly Node
Select the Bitly node from the app selection panel on the right.

- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Bitly, Cloze, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Bitly and Cloze integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Bitly and Cloze (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Bitly and Cloze
Bitly + Google Sheets + Cloze: When a Bitly link receives a click, the event is recorded in a Google Sheet. The flow then finds the corresponding contact in Cloze and updates their communication record with the link click information.
Cloze + Bitly + Slack: When a person is updated in Cloze, the flow gets any associated Bitly links and monitors them. If a Bitly link is clicked, a message is sent to a designated Slack channel, alerting the sales team.
