Alternative to http://bit.ly/api?url=urlencode($url) in V3?

Thanks for Feedback.

Hi Sergej. yes there is a shorten call in v3. You can find the
documentation at http://api.bit.ly/

thanks for your answer.

Sorry, but I see examples only with api key.
For example: http://api.bit.ly/v3/shorten?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fbetaworks.com%2F&format=txt
returns MISSING_ARG_APIKEY

And the execute of http://bit.ly/api?url=http%253A%252F%252Fbetaworks.com
returns the bitly code page ;(

Any idea?

please see the section titled 'Authentication and Shared Parameters'
and also consult the examples listed for /v3/shorten for the correct
format.

http://code.google.com/p/bitly-api/wiki/ApiDocumentation#Authentication_and_Shared_Parameters

you need to pass along your bit.ly login and apiKey to make a shorten request.

No API requests without api Key? No url shorten without api key?
