Integrate the ipbase API with the Data Stores API

The ipbase API offers the ability to get detailed information about IP addresses, including geolocation data, ISP details, and connection type. Using this API on Pipedream allows for the automation of tasks like analyzing web traffic, customizing user content based on location, and enhancing cybersecurity measures by detecting unusual IP activities. On Pipedream, you can integrate this API into workflows that trigger automatically, process the data, and connect with other services for comprehensive solutions.

Connect ipbase#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    ipbase: {
      type: "app",
      app: "ipbase",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://api.ipbase.com/v2/info`,
      params: {
        apikey: `${this.ipbase.$auth.api_key}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Data Stores#

Data Stores are a key-value store that allow you to persist state and share data across workflows. You can perform CRUD operations, enabling dynamic data management within your serverless architecture. Use it to save results from API calls, user inputs, or interim data; then read, update, or enrich this data in subsequent steps or workflows. Data Stores simplify stateful logic and cross-workflow communication, making them ideal for tracking process statuses, aggregating metrics, or serving as a simple configuration store.

Connect Data Stores#

export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    myDataStore: {
      type: "data_store",
    },
  },
  async run({ steps, $ }) {
    await this.myDataStore.set("key_here","Any serializable JSON as the value")
    return await this.myDataStore.get("key_here")
  },
