Overview of ERPNext#

ERPNext is an open-source enterprise resource planning (ERP) software that integrates core business functions like accounting, inventory, sales, purchase, and HR management into a single system. With the ERPNext API, you can automate these functions by triggering actions in ERPNext or syncing data with other systems. Pipedream can be a powerful partner here, as it allows you to set up complex integrations and workflows without the need for a dedicated backend. By using Pipedream, you can connect ERPNext with numerous other apps to streamline processes, react to events in real-time, and automate data transfers.

Connect ERPNext#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    erpnext: {
      type: "app",
      app: "erpnext",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `${this.erpnext.$auth.base_url}/api/method/frappe.auth.get_logged_user`,
      auth: {
        username: `${this.erpnext.$auth.api_key}`,
        password: `${this.erpnext.$auth.api_secret}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Node#

Develop, run and deploy your Node.js code in Pipedream workflows, using it between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and File Stores.

This includes installing NPM packages, within your code without having to manage a package.json file or running npm install.

Below is an example of installing the axios package in a Pipedream Node.js code step. Pipedream imports the axios package, performs the API request, and shares the response with subsequent workflow steps:

Connect Node#

// To use previous step data, pass the `steps` object to the run() function
export default defineComponent({
  async run({ steps, $ }) {
    // Return data to use it in future steps
    return steps.trigger.event
  },
})
