Overview#
The Dev.to API enables programmatic interaction with Dev.to, a community for software developers to share articles and engage with content. Through the API, you can automate content creation, management, and analysis. Accessing user articles, managing comments, and triggering actions based on Dev.to events are just a few capabilities at your disposal. By leveraging these with Pipedream's serverless platform, you can craft powerful automations that respond in real-time to activities on Dev.to, streamlining your content strategy and community engagement.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
dev_to: {
type: "app",
app: "dev_to",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://dev.to/api/articles/me`,
headers: {
"api-key": `${this.dev_to.$auth.api_key}`,
},
})
},
})
