FAQ

Questions about Get Link Click Metrics.

What does the Get Link Click Metrics action do in Bitly?

Returns click counts and breakdowns (country, device, referrer) for a specific shortened link over a time range. Useful for "weekly campaign performance report" rollups that aggregate clicks across multiple campaign links.

What inputs does Get Link Click Metrics require?

Required: Bitlink. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.

Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.

What happens if Bitly returns an error?

The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.

Does Get Link Click Metrics support batch operations?

Yes. Run Get Link Click Metrics inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Bitly's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
