Filter
Specify a condition that your workflow must meet and whether you'd like to proceed or end workflow execution.
Integrate the Filter API with the Python API
Setup the Filter API trigger to run a workflow which integrates with the Python API. Pipedream's integration platform allows you to integrate Filter and Python remarkably fast. Free for developers.

Overview of Filter#
The Filter API is a great way to build powerful workflows that can manipulate
and transform data. Here are some examples of what you can build using the
Filter API:
- A workflow that transforms data from one format to another
- A workflow that filters out data that does not meet certain criteria
- A workflow that sorts data in a specific order
- A workflow that calculates statistics or aggregates data
- A workflow that combines data from multiple sources
Connect Filter#
export default defineComponent({
async run({ steps, $ }) {
let condition = false
if (condition == false) {
$.flow.exit("Ending workflow early because the condition is false")
} else {
$.export("$summary", "Continuing workflow, since condition for ending was not met.")
}
},
