Social media management platform.
Delay the execution of your workflow for a specific amount of time (does not count against your compute time).
The Hootsuite API offers a variety of endpoints to automate social media management tasks such as scheduling posts, managing social content, and analyzing social media performance. By leveraging Pipedream, you can create serverless workflows to interact with the Hootsuite API; you can schedule posts at optimal times, aggregate metrics for reporting, or even respond to social media activity in real-time. Pipedream's platform allows the seamless integration of the Hootsuite API with hundreds of other apps to streamline social media workflows, monitor brand presence, and engage with audiences effectively.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
hootsuite: {
type: "app",
app: "hootsuite",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://platform.hootsuite.com/v1/me`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.hootsuite.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})
The Delay API in Pipedream is a built-in function that allows you to pause a workflow for a specified amount of time. This can be incredibly useful when you need to stagger API calls to avoid rate limits, wait for an external process to complete, or simply introduce a delay between actions in a sequence. With precision up to milliseconds, the Delay API provides a simple yet powerful tool for managing timing in automation workflows.
export default defineComponent({
async run({steps, $}) {
// Specify the amount of time to delay your workflow in milliseconds
return $.flow.delay(5000)
},
})
