The Data.Police.UK API provides access to a wide array of UK crime data, allowing users to query information about street-level crimes, outcomes, and the location of police stations. You can leverage this data within Pipedream to build automated workflows that react to new data, analyze crime trends, or integrate with other services to enhance public awareness and safety. With Pipedream, you can create serverless workflows that connect Data.Police.UK API with other apps to streamline tasks, generate reports, or trigger alerts based on crime data.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
data_police_uk: {
type: "app",
app: "data_police_uk",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://data.police.uk/api/forces`,
})
},
})
The Delay API in Pipedream is a built-in function that allows you to pause a workflow for a specified amount of time. This can be incredibly useful when you need to stagger API calls to avoid rate limits, wait for an external process to complete, or simply introduce a delay between actions in a sequence. With precision up to milliseconds, the Delay API provides a simple yet powerful tool for managing timing in automation workflows.
export default defineComponent({
async run({steps, $}) {
// Specify the amount of time to delay your workflow in milliseconds
return $.flow.delay(5000)
},
})
