Get Social Count

ShareThis provides plug-in and sharing buttons that help people share any content on the web via AIM, text message, or email. This action lets you get the count of total sharing activity for URLs, enabling you to display count on social buttons. To achieve this, add this action to your canvas, and configure it. 

In the ‘API Key’ field, specify the API Key of your ShareThis account. Then, enter the URL for which you wish to get the count. You can also get the share action count for a specific social service by entering the service name in the ‘Provider’ field. If this field is left blank, it returns total count for all the services. Once you enter these details, click on ‘Done’ and run the workflow. This will return the count of total sharing action for the specified URL.
