Foreign exchange rates and currency conversion JSON API
The Fixer API provides real-time exchange rate data for various currencies, making it invaluable for financial applications, data analysis, and e-commerce platforms. Within Pipedream, you can harness this API to create automated workflows that trigger on schedules or events, process currency data, and connect with other services to perform actions such as updating pricing models, sending alerts, or syncing financial data across platforms.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
fixer_io: {
type: "app",
app: "fixer_io",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://data.fixer.io/api/latest`,
headers: {
"Accept": `application/json`,
},
params: {
access_key: `${this.fixer_io.$auth.api_key}`,
},
})
},
})
The Schedule app in Pipedream is a powerful tool that allows you to trigger workflows at regular intervals, ranging from every minute to once a year. This enables the automation of repetitive tasks and the scheduling of actions to occur without manual intervention. By leveraging this API, you can execute code, run integrations, and process data on a reliable schedule, all within Pipedream's serverless environment.
