Setup guide (opens in a new tab)Bitly holds the short links and QR codes your team shares, and LiveChat is where agents talk to visitors. Connecting them lets a new Bitlink, tag or branded domain in Bitly feed straight into LiveChat as a chat, a message, a thread tag or a group change, so agents hand out the right link without digging for it.

Questions
Bitly and LiveChat, answered
Can a LiveChat event start one of these workflows?
No, LiveChat has no triggers listed here, so every workflow starts from a Bitly event such as a new Bitlink, a new tag, a new group or a new branded short domain. From there the agent runs LiveChat actions like Start Chat, Send Message, Tag Chat Thread or Create Group.
Can the agent look up a link's destination before it writes into LiveChat?
Yes, Retrieve Bitlink and Expand Bitlink return the Bitlink's details and long destination URL, and that value can be placed in a LiveChat Send Message. The agent tests every scenario, including links with no title or tags, before the workflow runs on its own.
What can start an automation from Bitly?
Any of Bitly's 8 triggers in the catalog, including New Bitlink in Group, New Branded Short Domain, New Group and New Sorted Bitlink in Group. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in LiveChat when something happens in Bitly?
Any of LiveChat's 17 actions, including Create Group, Send Message, Tag Chat Thread and Update Group. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from LiveChat to Bitly?
LiveChat has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Bitly. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads LiveChat's API documentation and adds it.
Do I have to build a connector for Bitly or LiveChat?
No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.
What happens when something fails?
Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
