How to connect Kintone and Bitly
Create a New Scenario to Connect Kintone and Bitly
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 Kintone, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Kintone or Bitly will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Kintone or Bitly, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

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 Kintone, Bitly, 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 Kintone and Bitly integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Kintone 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 Kintone and Bitly
Kintone + Bitly + Slack: When a new record is created in Kintone, a Bitly link is generated to shorten the Kintone record's URL. This shortened link is then sent to a Slack channel for easy access.
Bitly + Kintone + Google Sheets: When a Bitly link is created, its click data is tracked in Google Sheets, and the corresponding Kintone record is updated with this click data. This ensures Kintone reflects the latest link activity.
