Automate URL Shortening for Zoho Forms Submissions

This automation is designed to help users of Zoho Forms quickly shorten the URLs of their form submissions using the URL Shortener by Zapier service.

When a new entry is created in a Zoho Form, this workflow will automatically generate a shortened URL for the form submission and update the record with the shortened link. This saves time and provides a more compact URL that can be easily shared. The automation integrates Zoho Forms and the URL Shortener by Zapier, allowing users to streamline their form management and improve the presentation of their form submissions.
