Overview of FreshBooks#
The FreshBooks API lets you automate invoicing, expense tracking, timekeeping and client management tasks. By harnessing this API within Pipedream, you can create custom automations that sync your financial data with other business applications, respond to client actions quickly, and streamline payment processes. The API enables you to pull reports, manage invoices, and update client information, making it a powerful tool for freelancers and small businesses looking to automate their accounting tasks.

Overview of Python#
Develop, run and deploy your Python code in Pipedream workflows. Integrate seamlessly between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and manipulate files within a workflow.
This includes installing PyPI packages, within your code without having to manage a requirements.txt file or running pip.
Below is an example of using Python to access data from the trigger of the workflow, and sharing it with subsequent workflow steps:
Connect Python#
def handler(pd: "pipedream"):
# Reference data from previous steps
print(pd.steps["trigger"]["context"]["id"])
# Return data for use in future steps
return {"foo": {"test":True}}
