How this automation works

This applet creates a trackable Bitly short link for any new Pinterest pin you add so side-hustle sellers can measure and reuse promotional links. It runs whenever a new pin is added to a selected Pinterest board and automatically calls Bitly to add a bitlink to the pin's URL. It's a simple Etsy marketing tool to help promote your Etsy shop with measurable links.
