Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Cloud Translate and Bitly (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Google Cloud Translate and Bitly
Google Sheets + Google Cloud Translate + Bitly: When a new row is added to a Google Sheet, the text in a specified column is translated into English using Google Cloud Translate. The translated text, along with a shortened Bitly link to the original data, is then added to another column in the same Google Sheet for analysis.
Google Cloud Translate + Bitly + X (Twitter): When a new article link is created (simulated here, as there is no link trigger), its text is translated using Google Cloud Translate. The translated article link is shortened using Bitly, and then automatically posted on X (Twitter).
