Tumblr bot URL Shortner Help
If you want to use shortened URLs from Google goo.gl or Bitly you can now have these automatically applied to your Syndicated Content URLs. A great way to link your Tumblr content to a blog post on a different site with less restrictions on adverts.
So you can use Bitly if you have an API username and pass.
Signup for bitly user account
Get your API details
To use a Google Gool.gl shortner you don't have to use an API key, but it is better if you do for stats.
To acquire an API key, visit the APIs Console.
Next, go to the API Access panel. The API key is near the bottom of that pane, in the section titled "Simple API Access."

Is there any way to automatically apply this URL shortner to URLs I usually add to the Description field of the Meta Data when posting images?
