Hey, thanks for your help.
I'm looking to create a script that creates a bitly link to the file every
time I upload a file using box simpleshare. the app copy's a url to the
clipboard and sends a growl notification when it is done so I've written a
script which will take the contents of the clipboard and check it is a url
and then create a bitly link copy it to the clipboard and notify using
growl. The script works succesfully the only thing is I want it to trigger
every time box simpleshare sends a notification so that I automatically get
a bitly link. I can't seem to get it to trigger.
What am I doing wrong?
