Overview of Apify#

The Apify API unleashes the power to automate web scraping, process data, and orchestrate web automation workflows. By utilizing Apify on Pipedream, you can create dynamic serverless workflows to manage tasks like extracting data from websites, running browser automation, and scheduling these jobs to run autonomously. It integrates smoothly with Pipedream's capabilities to trigger actions on various other apps, store the results, and manage complex data flow with minimal setup.

Connect Apify#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    apify: {
      type: "app",
      app: "apify",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://api.apify.com/v2/users/me`,
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${this.apify.$auth.api_token}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Filter#

The Filter API in Pipedream allows for real-time data processing within workflows. It's designed to evaluate data against predefined conditions, enabling workflows to branch or perform specific actions based on those conditions. This API is instrumental in creating efficient, targeted automations that respond dynamically to diverse datasets. Using the Filter API, you can refine streams of data, ensuring that subsequent steps in your Pipedream workflow only execute when the data meets your specified criteria. This cuts down on unnecessary processing and facilitates the creation of more intelligent, context-aware systems.

Connect Filter#

export default defineComponent({
  async run({ steps, $ }) {
    let condition = false
    if (condition == false) {
      $.flow.exit("Ending workflow early because the condition is false")
    } else {
        $.export("$summary", "Continuing workflow, since condition for ending was not met.")
    }
  },
})
