Overview of LinkedIn#

The LinkedIn API on Pipedream allows you to automate interactions with your LinkedIn account, such as posting updates, managing your profile, and engaging with your network. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can create workflows that trigger on various events, process data, and connect with countless other apps to extend your LinkedIn presence, analyze your network's demographics, automate content sharing, and more.

Connect LinkedIn#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    linkedin: {
      type: "app",
      app: "linkedin",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://api.linkedin.com/v2/me`,
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${this.linkedin.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Delay#

The Delay API in Pipedream is a built-in function that allows you to pause a workflow for a specified amount of time. This can be incredibly useful when you need to stagger API calls to avoid rate limits, wait for an external process to complete, or simply introduce a delay between actions in a sequence. With precision up to milliseconds, the Delay API provides a simple yet powerful tool for managing timing in automation workflows.

Connect Delay#

export default defineComponent({
  async run({steps, $}) {
    // Specify the amount of time to delay your workflow in milliseconds
    return $.flow.delay(5000)
  },
})
