Measuring America's People, Places, and Economy.
The Census Bureau API provides access to a wealth of demographic and economic data collected by the U.S. Census Bureau. In Pipedream, this powerful API can be harnessed to create custom workflows that automate data retrieval, process statistics, and integrate with other services for enhanced analysis and reporting. By leveraging Pipedream's serverless platform, you can set up scheduled tasks or event-driven triggers to interact with the Census Bureau's data, making it easier to incorporate this information into your applications, research, or business intelligence tools.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
census_bureau: {
type: "app",
app: "census_bureau",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.census.gov/data/2019/pep/charagegroups`,
params: {
get: `NAME,POP`,
for: `state:*`,
key: `${this.census_bureau.$auth.api_key}`,
},
})
},
})
The Schedule app in Pipedream is a powerful tool that allows you to trigger workflows at regular intervals, ranging from every minute to once a year. This enables the automation of repetitive tasks and the scheduling of actions to occur without manual intervention. By leveraging this API, you can execute code, run integrations, and process data on a reliable schedule, all within Pipedream's serverless environment.
