Bit.ly v4 script for shortening URL's

On March 1, 2020 Bit.ly implemented a new version 4 of their API for shortening URL's. It was a challenge to find out how this would work with a Deluge script, but I finallyhave a working script, so I thought would share it. Bit.ly provides a free account option where you can generate an access token. The option below is used when you have an application using a single account. (Bit.ly V4 documentation is here.)

//URL TO SHORTEN

url="https://www.zoho.com/creator/newhelp/user-guides.html" [doesn't need to be encoded]

//ACCESS CODES

Authorization = "Bearer [ENTER ACCESS TOKEN}";

Group = "[ENTER GROUP NAME";

Domain = "bit.ly";

Service = "https://api-ssl.bitly.com/v4/shorten";

//CONSTRUCT MAP

Header_Map = Map();

Header_Map.put("Content-Type","application/json");

Header_Map.put("Authorization",Authorization);

Body_Map = Map();

Body_Map.put("long_url",url);

Body_Map.put("group_guid",Group);

Body_Map.put("domain",Domain);

//MAKE CALL AND RETURN VALUE

code = postUrl(Service,Body_Map.toString(),Header_Map,false);

shorturl=code.getjson("responseText").getjson("link");

Json code is returned to the "code" variable when the postUrl is executed. the getjson function returns the "link" node.

Hope this is helpful to someone else.
