Overview of FTrack#
The FTrack API is a powerhouse for creative project management, enabling users to automate and integrate a wide array of tasks related to project tracking, asset management, and team collaboration. With Pipedream, you can harness this API to create custom workflows that trigger actions within FTrack or connect it with other apps to streamline your creative operations. It's a toolset for improving efficiency by automating repetitive tasks, syncing data across applications, and orchestrating complex project management activities.
Connect FTrack#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
ftrack: {
type: "app",
app: "ftrack",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
method: "POST",
url: `https://${this.ftrack.$auth.subdomain}.ftrackapp.com/api`,
headers: {
"Content-Type": `application/json`,
"ftrack-user": `${this.ftrack.$auth.username}`,
"ftrack-api-key": `${this.ftrack.$auth.api_key}`,
},
data: []
})
},
})
Overview of Slack#
The Pipedream Slack app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Slack API. Once you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your workspace, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Slack actions or write your own code against the Slack API.
The Pipedream Slack app is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.
- Automate posting updates to your team channels
- Create a bot to answer common questions
- Integrate with your existing tools and services
- And much more!
Connect Slack#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {

type: "app",
app: "slack",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://slack.com/api/users.profile.get`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.slack.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})
