Overview of CurrencyScoop#
The CurrencyScoop API offers real-time and historical exchange rate data, as well as currency conversion and time-series data. By integrating with Pipedream, users can create automated workflows that react to currency fluctuations, update pricing in their apps, or generate financial reports. Pipedream's serverless architecture enables running these workflows on a schedule or in response to certain triggers without managing any infrastructure.
Connect CurrencyScoop#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
currencyscoop: {
type: "app",
app: "currencyscoop",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.currencybeacon.com/v1/latest?api_key=${this.currencyscoop.$auth.api_key}`,
})
},
})
Overview of Slack#
The Pipedream Slack app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Slack API. When you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your workspace, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Slack actions, or write your own code against the Slack API.
The Pipedream Slack app is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.
- Automate posting updates to your team channels
- Create a bot to answer common questions
- Integrate with your existing tools and services
- And much more!
