Overview of Congress.gov#

The Congress.gov API opens the door to a repository of legislative information from the United States Congress. With this API, you can access details on bills, amendments, congressional records, and members' profiles. Integrating this API with Pipedream allows you to automatically track legislative developments, analyze policymaking trends, and stay informed on the activities of specific members of Congress. By creating workflows on Pipedream, you can connect Congress.gov data with numerous apps to streamline political data analysis, advocacy efforts, or journalistic research.

Connect Congress.gov#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    congress_gov: {
      type: "app",
      app: "congress_gov",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://api.congress.gov/v3/bill`,
      params: {
        format: `json`,
        api_key: `${this.congress_gov.$auth.api_key}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Snowflake#

Snowflake offers a cloud database and related tools to help developers create robust, secure, and scalable data warehouses. See Snowflake's Key Concepts & Architecture.

Getting Started

1. Create a user, role and warehouse in Snowflake

Snowflake recommends you create a new user, role, and warehouse when you integrate a third-party tool like Pipedream. This way, you can control permissions via the user / role, and separate Pipedream compute and costs with the warehouse. You can do this directly in the Snowflake UI.

We recommend you create a read-only account if you only need to query Snowflake. If you need to insert data into Snowflake, add permissions on the appropriate objects after you create your user.

2. Enter those details in Pipedream

Visit https://pipedream.com/accounts. Click the button to Connect an App. Enter the required Snowflake account data.

You'll only need to connect your account once in Pipedream. You can connect this account to multiple workflows to run queries against Snowflake, insert data, and more.

3. Build your first workflow

Visit https://pipedream.com/new to build your first workflow. Pipedream workflows let you connect Snowflake with 1,000+ other apps. You can trigger workflows on Snowflake queries, sending results to Slack, Google Sheets, or any app that exposes an API. Or you can accept data from another app, transform it with Python, Node.js, Go or Bash code, and insert it into Snowflake.
