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

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Bitly, HeyGen, 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 HeyGen integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Bitly and HeyGen (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 HeyGen
Bitly + Google Sheets + HeyGen: This automation tracks shortened link clicks using Bitly. When a link performs well (based on click data not available in these operations), the automation creates a personalized video message with HeyGen using available action Generate Video from Template. The Bitlink and HeyGen video details are then logged in a Google Sheet using Add Single Row.
HeyGen + Bitly + X (Twitter): First, a video is generated using HeyGen's Generate Video from Template action. Then, the link to this video is shortened using Bitly's Shorten Link action. Finally, the shortened link, along with some predefined text (since video upload is unavailable), is posted to X (Twitter) using the Create Post action.
