Overview of Box#
The Box API offers a playground for enhancing content management and collaboration within your cloud storage. With Pipedream, you can orchestrate Box's functionality to automate document handling, streamline approval flows, sync files across apps, and trigger actions based on file events. Think of Pipedream as the glue that allows you to connect Box with your tech stack, triggering workflows with new file uploads, comments, or when sharing settings change, to enhance productivity and minimize manual labor.
Connect Box#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
box: {
type: "app",
app: "box",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.box.com/2.0/users/me`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.box.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})
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
},
