Overview#
The Imgur API offers a way to programmatically engage with the Imgur platform, allowing for the upload and management of images, as well as access to Imgur's vast gallery of community images. With Pipedream, you can harness this API to create automated workflows that respond to various triggers and integrate with other services. This can facilitate tasks like automated image sharing, content moderation, or social media management.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
imgur: {
type: "app",
app: "imgur",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.imgur.com/3/account/me/`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.imgur.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})

Example Use Cases#
Automated Image Backup to Cloud Storage: Trigger a Pipedream workflow whenever a new image is uploaded to Imgur. Automatically save a copy of the image to a cloud storage service like Google Drive or Dropbox, ensuring you have a backup of all uploaded images.
Social Media Content Pipeline: Use Pipedream to monitor Imgur for new images tagged with specific keywords. Once an image is detected, the workflow could push the content to your social media platforms, such as Twitter or Facebook, enabling a consistent flow of content sourced from Imgur's community-driven galleries.
Moderation Alert System: Create a Pipedream workflow that scans new Imgur uploads for content that doesn't adhere to your platform's guidelines. If such content is identified, the workflow can trigger alerts or emails to moderators, integrate with a task management app like Trello, or directly invoke moderation actions via the Imgur API.
Authentication#
Name Slug: imgurImgur uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Imgur account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Imgur and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Imgur API.
Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
- authorization
