Find Referrers for a Link

The 'referrer' is the site that contained the link that you clicked on to get to the current page. You can share bitly links on any site or social network, and then look at the referrers to figure out which sites are actually sending traffic to the link.

Instructions

the v3/link/referrers endpoint accepts a link parameter and returns the number of clicks from each referring site. Change the link parameter in the example code to a link that you created.
