Bitly API vs Power Query

Hey all, 

 

 

This has been puzzling me for a few days, I'm hoping someone can really spell it out for me. It's my understanding that you can use the generated token on your bitly account to draw in click data to power query. 

I found the following guidance however, it didn't work for me: 
Easiest way to gather Bitly click data on a daily/... - Microsoft Power BI Community
It always results in the following error:

I've also read over the API documentation on Bitly's website and most of what I'm reading is gibberish to me. 

has anyone had any luck with this? if so, how did you do it? 

 

 

Thanks, Karlos.
