Kaggle API Integrations
Build and run workflows using the Kaggle API. Use 1000s of source-available triggers and actions across 2,000+ apps. Or write custom code to integrate any app or API in seconds.
Overview#
The Kaggle API allows you to harness a trove of data science and machine learning resources. With this API, you can download datasets, make competition submissions, and interact with Kaggle forums directly. By leveraging Pipedream's capabilities, you can automate repetitive tasks, integrate Kaggle with other applications, and create custom workflows to augment your data science projects.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
kaggle: {
type: "app",
app: "kaggle",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://www.kaggle.com/api/v1/datasets/list`,
auth: {
username: `${this.kaggle.$auth.username}`,
password: `${this.kaggle.$auth.api_key}`,
},
params: {
"": ``,
},
})
},
})

Example Use Cases#
Automated Dataset Download and ETL: Set up a workflow on Pipedream that triggers at scheduled intervals to download the latest version of a Kaggle dataset. Once the dataset is downloaded, the workflow can clean and transform the data before loading it into a database like PostgreSQL, enabling continuous data refreshes for your analytics.
Competition Submission Reminder: Create a workflow that monitors Kaggle for new competitions and sends notifications via Slack or email. This keeps you informed about new challenges without having to manually check the Kaggle site, ensuring that you never miss an opportunity to compete.
Forum Interaction Digest: Implement a workflow that collects the latest posts from specific Kaggle forums and compiles them into a daily or weekly digest. This digest can then be sent to your preferred communication app, such as Discord or Microsoft Teams, keeping you up to date with the community without manual browsing.
Authentication#
Kaggle uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Kaggle account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Kaggle APIs in both code and no-code steps.
In order to use the Kaggle’s public API, you must first authenticate using an API token. From the site header, click on your user profile picture, then on “My Account” from the dropdown menu. This will take you to your account settings.
