MCP
Give your agent Google Cloud Vision tools
Every Google Cloud Vision action is exposed as an MCP tool on Pipedream's remote server. Point a client at it with your end user's ID and Connect resolves that user's Google Cloud Vision account for each tool call — you store no tokens.
// accessToken: mint a short-lived token with the Connect SDK — see the MCP guide
const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
new URL("https://remote.mcp.pipedream.net/v3"),
{
requestInit: {
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`,
"x-pd-project-id": "{project_id}",
"x-pd-environment": "production",
"x-pd-external-user-id": "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
"x-pd-app-slug": "google_cloud_vision_api",
},
},
},
)
const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)
const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()
// e.g. run Detect Labels in Image:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
name: "google_cloud_vision_api-detect-labels-in-image",
arguments: {
projectId: "Project ID",
file: "File Path or URL",
},
})# access_token: mint a short-lived token with the Connect SDK — see the MCP guide

Call the Google Cloud Vision API directly
For an endpoint with no pre-built tool, the Connect proxy forwards your request to the Google Cloud Vision API with the connected user's credentials attached. You store no tokens and write no refresh logic.
const resp = await pd.proxy.get({
externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
accountId: "apn_xxxxxxx",
url: "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/userinfo",
})
// Any allowed Google Cloud Vision endpoint works here. Pipedream attaches the
// connected account's credentials to the outgoing request.# The path segment is the target URL, URL-safe base64 encoded:
# https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/userinfo

Run Google Cloud Vision actions from your backend
Connect a user's Google Cloud Vision account once, then run Detect Labels in Image on their behalf from your own code — TypeScript, Python, or plain HTTP.

Google Cloud Vision actions
On-demand operations your product or agent can configure and run on behalf of a connected user.
-
Detect Labels in Image
actionPerforms feature detection on a local or remote image file. See the documentation.Writev1.0.1 -
Detect Logos in Image
actionDetects logos within a local or remote image file. See the documentation.Writev1.0.1 -
Detect Text in Image
actionDetects text in a local image or remote image. See the documentation.Read-onlyv1.0.1
EVENTS
Google Cloud Vision triggers
Event sources your backend can deploy for users and receive through a webhook.
No Google Cloud Vision triggers are available yet.
MULTI-APP
Use Google Cloud Vision with other popular apps
Most products don't stop at one integration. Pair Google Cloud Vision with the other apps your users rely on, and ship use cases that span both.
