The first time you use the Bitly browser extension for Chrome, Firefox, or Microsoft Edge, you'll be asked to log in to your Bitly account. If you don't have one, you can sign up.
To log in to the Bitly browser extension:
- Click the Bitly icon in your browser toolbar and click Log In.
- Click Allow on the authorization page. If you're not signed in to Bitly, you'll be prompted to log in first.
- Log in to your Bitly account.
The next time you click the Bitly icon in your toolbar, you can select which group you want to use as your default. You can change your group later but going to your extension settings.
