Overview of Clerk#

The Clerk API lets you manage user authentication and create secure, delightful user experiences in your apps. Within Pipedream's serverless platform, you can harness this API to automate workflows that trigger on user events, sync user data across apps, and maintain robust user management without the heavy lifting of building authentication infrastructure from scratch.

Connect Clerk#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    clerk: {
      type: "app",
      app: "clerk",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://api.clerk.com/v1/users`,
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${this.clerk.$auth.secret_key}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

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
  },
})
