Overview of Discord Bot#
The Discord Bot API unlocks the power to interact with Discord users and channels programmatically, making it possible to automate messages, manage servers, and integrate with other services. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can create complex workflows that respond to events in Discord, process data, and trigger actions in other apps. This opens up opportunities for community engagement, content moderation, analytics, and more, without the overhead of managing infrastructure.
Connect Discord Bot#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
discord_bot: {
type: "app",
app: "discord_bot",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://discord.com/api/users/@me`,
headers: {
"Authorization": `Bot ${this.discord_bot.$auth.bot_token}`,
},
})
},
})
Overview of Delay#
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.
Connect Delay#
export default defineComponent({
async run({steps, $}) {
// Specify the amount of time to delay your workflow in milliseconds
return $.flow.delay(5000)
},
})
