The Humor API is a tool that offers a variety of endpoints to add some laughter to your applications. Integrated into Pipedream, you can harness this API to create custom workflows that trigger actions across various services, responding to events with a light-hearted touch. Use cases may include sending jokes as icebreakers in emails, posting humorous content to social media, or integrating fun prompts into chatbots.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
humor_api: {
type: "app",
app: "humor_api",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.humorapi.com/memes/search`,
headers: {
"Content-Type": `application/json`,
},
params: {
keywords: `{your_keywords}`,
"api-key": `${this.humor_api.$auth.api_key}`,
},
})
},
})
Automated Joke Emails: Set up a workflow that triggers daily, using the Humor API to fetch a random joke which is then sent to a mailing list with the help of the Gmail app. It's a fun way to start the day and engage with your audience.
Social Media Humor Scheduling: Create a Pipedream workflow that pulls the funniest jokes or memes using the Humor API and schedules them for posting on social platforms like Twitter or Facebook, adding a consistent stream of humor to your social media presence.
Chatbot Humor Integration: Enhance a chatbot on platforms like Slack or Discord by integrating the Humor API. Use Pipedream to fetch a joke or a funny quote when specific commands are used, injecting a dose of levity into conversations.
