Hi @jefrii

I too had a similar use case where I used rebrandly as our 3rd party.

As I guess bitly is also an open source API, so you can create your account and keys to play around with the API projects. Once you are familiar with the body parameters which you need to send to bitly through an API call to get the shortened URL in response. You can create the same call in Adobe through JavaScript in a workflow and make the call to bitly to get the shortened URL in response after whitelisting the bitly URL in console.

Thanks,

Akshay
