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

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

Set Up the Render and Bitly 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 Render, 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 Render and Bitly integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Render 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 Render and Bitly
Render + Bitly + Google Sheets: When a new deploy occurs in Render, a short Bitly link is created for the deployed URL. The original URL and the shortened link are then added as a new row in a Google Sheet for tracking and monitoring.
Bitly + Render + Slack: When a Bitly link is clicked, check if the link points to a Render app URL. If the number of clicks on that Bitly link exceeds a defined threshold, a notification is sent to a Slack channel to alert the team to check the server performance.
