Overview of Algolia#

Algolia is a powerful search-as-a-service platform that makes it easy to deliver fast, relevant search experiences to users. The Algolia API allows developers to programmatically manage search indices, perform searches, and capture insights about search activity. With Pipedream, you can harness this API to automate and integrate Algolia's capabilities with other apps, creating efficient workflows that enhance search functionalities and user engagement. You can sync data across platforms, automate content indexing, and trigger actions based on search patterns or user behaviors.

Connect Algolia#

import algoliasearch from "algoliasearch";

export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    algolia: {
      type: "app",
      app: "algolia",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    const client = algoliasearch(this.algolia.$auth.application_id, this.algolia.$auth.api_key);
    return await client.listIndices()
  },
})

Overview of Delay#

The Delay API in Pipedream is a built-in function that allows you to pause a workflow for a specified amount of time. This can be incredibly useful when you need to stagger API calls to avoid rate limits, wait for an external process to complete, or simply introduce a delay between actions in a sequence. With precision up to milliseconds, the Delay API provides a simple yet powerful tool for managing timing in automation workflows.

Connect Delay#

export default defineComponent({
  async run({steps, $}) {
    // Specify the amount of time to delay your workflow in milliseconds
    return $.flow.delay(5000)
  },
})
