Getting Started with the Bitly API
At bitly, we’re constantly working to make our platform as developer friendly as possible. So we’re happy to share this quickstart guide that contains sample code for several of our popular API endpoints that power the millions of link shortens, clicks and shares we see every day, per day. Written as a side project by our resident Enstitute fellow and data newbie Jasmine, these simple python scripts are a great way for any programmer, experienced or inexperienced, to skip the setup time and jump straight into the same technology behind our realtime search engine, topic-central twitter bots, bundles and more!
Search for specific keywords and filter by topic, social network, location, domain and language to return related content currently receiving the most attention on the internet.
Power 3rd-party applications to provide constant streams of interesting online content.
Create and curate bundles of links from anywhere.
So what are you waiting for? Get started by forking this Github repository! If you have any questions, let us know at api@bitly.com.
