How to connect Bitly and Glide
Create a New Scenario to Connect Bitly and Glide
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 Glide will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Bitly or Glide, 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.

Authenticate Glide
Now, click the Glide node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your Glide settings. Authentication allows you to use Glide through Latenode.
Configure the Bitly and Glide Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the Bitly and Glide Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- 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.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Bitly, Glide, 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 Glide integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Bitly and Glide (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 Glide
Bitly + Google Sheets + Glide: Whenever a Bitlink is created, the details are added to a Google Sheet. This sheet is then used to dynamically update a Glide app, providing real-time click tracking visualization.
Glide + Bitly + Airtable: When a new row is added to a Glide app, a URL from that row is shortened using Bitly and stored in an Airtable base. This facilitates content management and link tracking for Glide app content.
