Leadfeeder Overview#

Leadfeeder is a tool that reveals the companies visiting your website and how they interact with your content. By harnessing the power of the Leadfeeder API on Pipedream, you can automate the process of capturing lead data and integrating it directly into your sales and marketing workflows. This can range from enriching CRM records to triggering custom email campaigns based on visitor behavior, enabling a more dynamic and responsive engagement with potential customers.

import utils from "../../common/utils.mjs";

export default {

      return this.app.getLeads;
    },
    getResourceFnArgs() {
      const lastVisitDateStr = this.getLastVisitDate();
      const currentDateStr = utils.getFormatDate();
      const daysAgoStr = utils.getFormatDate(30);
      return {
        accountId: this.accountId,
        params: {

The Salesforce (REST API) provides a powerful platform for creating and managing customer relationships with a wide array of features like data manipulation, querying, and complex automation. With Pipedream's serverless execution, you can create workflows that automate your sales processes, sync data with other platforms, enhance customer engagement, and trigger actions based on specific events. Dive into Salesforce data, streamline lead management, track customer interactions, and push or pull data to or from Salesforce seamlessly.
