Cartes API Integrations
Build and run workflows using the Cartes API. Use 1000s of source-available triggers and actions across 2,000+ apps. Or write custom code to integrate any app or API in seconds.
Overview#
Cartes API allows users to create, update, and share maps with custom markers, making it useful for location-based data visualization. With Pipedream, you can automate interactions with the Cartes API to integrate real-time mapping capabilities into your workflows. For instance, you could track assets, manage event locations, or update a map with user-generated content from various sources. Pipedream's power lies in its ability to connect the Cartes API with hundreds of other apps to create dynamic, automated workflows.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
cartes: {
type: "app",
app: "cartes",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://cartes.io/api/maps`,
})
},
})

Example Use Cases#
Real-Time Event Mapping: Automatically update a Cartes map with event locations as they are scheduled in a Google Calendar. Each time a new event is added, a Pipedream workflow triggers and places a marker on the map, providing a visual overview of event hotspots.
Customer Feedback Visualization: When a customer submits feedback through a Typeform survey indicating a location-based issue, a Pipedream workflow adds a marker to a Cartes map. This aids businesses in pinpointing areas with high volumes of customer concerns for targeted service improvements.
Asset Tracking System: Combine Cartes with GPS tracking hardware data. As assets move and report their coordinates through a webhook, Pipedream processes the data and updates their positions on a Cartes map in near real-time, useful for fleet management or logistics.
Authentication#
Cartes uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Cartes account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Cartes APIs in both code and no-code steps.
You do not need an API key to create maps. When you create a map via API, it will return the map object with a token field. This token will only be returned once, and is required to edit or delete the resource you just created.
