Overview of Automatic Data Extraction#

The Automatic Data Extraction API by Zyte specializes in extracting structured data from web pages. When incorporated into Pipedream workflows, this API allows you to automate the process of gathering web data, which can feed into various tasks such as market research, price monitoring, or even lead generation. By triggering workflows with new data inputs, processing and storing the extracted data, and connecting to other apps, Pipedream amplifies the API's utility.

Connect Automatic Data Extraction#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    automatic_data_extraction: {
      type: "app",
      app: "automatic_data_extraction",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    const data = JSON.stringify([{

  },
})

Overview of Node#

Develop, run and deploy your Node.js code in Pipedream workflows, using it between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and File Stores.

This includes installing NPM packages, within your code without having to manage a package.json file or running npm install.

Below is an example of installing the axios package in a Pipedream Node.js code step. Pipedream imports the axios package, performs the API request, and shares the response with subsequent workflow steps:

Connect Node#

// To use previous step data, pass the `steps` object to the run() function
export default defineComponent({
  async run({ steps, $ }) {
    // Return data to use it in future steps
    return steps.trigger.event
  },
})
