The Hacker News API on Pipedream allows you to tap into the vibrant pool of stories, comments, and user data from one of tech's favorite forums. By leveraging this API, you can automate the process of extracting data for analysis, tracking mentions of specific topics, or even monitoring the performance of your own submissions. The real power lies in integrating this wealth of information with other services to create custom, automated workflows that save time and keep you informed.

Overview of VIES API#
The VIES (VAT Information Exchange System) API lets you validate European VAT numbers. It's a tool for checking the validity of VAT numbers issued by any EU Member State, which is crucial for B2B transactions within the EU to ensure VAT compliance. In Pipedream, you can use the VIES API to automate workflows related to customer verification, invoicing, and compliance checks, streamlining the process of doing business across European borders.
