Integrate the Geocodio API with the Data Stores API

Geocodio is a tool for geocoding and reverse geocoding addresses into coordinates, or vice versa. It's a powerhouse for location data transformation, crucial for businesses needing to analyze spatial information, visualize location data on maps, or automate location-based notifications. With Pipedream's serverless platform, one can harness Geocodio's API to create dynamic and responsive workflows that react to events in real time, such as updating a map with real-time delivery locations or triggering alerts based on geographical areas.

Connect Geocodio#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    geocodio: {
      type: "app",
      app: "geocodio",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://api.geocod.io/v1.4/geocode`,
      params: {
        api_key: `${this.geocodio.$auth.api_key}`,
        "q": `1109+N+Highland+St%2c+Arlington+VA`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Data Stores#

Data Stores are a key-value store that allow you to persist state and share data across workflows. You can perform CRUD operations, enabling dynamic data management within your serverless architecture. Use it to save results from API calls, user inputs, or interim data; then read, update, or enrich this data in subsequent steps or workflows. Data Stores simplify stateful logic and cross-workflow communication, making them ideal for tracking process statuses, aggregating metrics, or serving as a simple configuration store.

Connect Data Stores#

export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    myDataStore: {
      type: "data_store",
    },
  },
  async run({ steps, $ }) {
    await this.myDataStore.set("key_here","Any serializable JSON as the value")
    return await this.myDataStore.get("key_here")
  },
})
