Direct Mail Automation and Address Verification APIs
Completely removes a postcard from production. This can only be done if the postcard has a send_date
and the send_date
has not yet passed. See docs here.
Write custom Node.js code and use any of the 400k+ npm packages available. Refer to the Pipedream Node docs to learn more.
The Lob API provides a suite of automation capabilities focused on direct mail, address verification, and print management. With Lob, you can automate the sending of physical mail programmatically, verify addresses to ensure deliverability, and manage printing logistics for marketing campaigns or operational needs. It's a powerful tool for bridging the digital and physical mailing worlds, particularly useful for marketing, billing, and compliance communications.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
lob: {
type: "app",
app: "lob",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.lob.com/v1/addresses`,
auth: {
username: this.lob.$auth.secret_api_key,
password: ''
},
})
},
})
Develop, run and deploy your Node.js code in Pipedream workflows, using it between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and File Stores.
This includes installing NPM packages, within your code without having to manage a package.json
file or running npm install
.
Below is an example of installing the axios
package in a Pipedream Node.js code step. Pipedream imports the axios
package, performs the API request, and shares the response with subsequent workflow steps:
// To use previous step data, pass the `steps` object to the run() function
export default defineComponent({
async run({ steps, $ }) {
// Return data to use it in future steps
return steps.trigger.event
},
})
