Overview of Mailgun#
The Mailgun API on Pipedream is a potent tool for automating email operations without the overhead of managing a full-fledged email server. It offers capabilities to send, receive, track, and store emails with ease. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can trigger workflows using Mailgun events, such as inbound emails or delivery status changes, and connect them to hundreds of other services to streamline communication, marketing, and notification systems within your ecosystem.
Connect Mailgun#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
mailgun: {
type: "app",
app: "mailgun",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://${this.mailgun.$auth.region && this.mailgun.$auth.region === "EU" ? "api.eu" : "api"}.mailgun.net/v3/domains`,
auth: {
username: `api`,
password: `${this.mailgun.$auth.api_key}`,
},
})
},
})
Overview of Slack#
The Pipedream Slack app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Slack API. When you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your workspace, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Slack actions, or write your own code against the Slack API.
The Pipedream Slack app is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.
- Automate posting updates to your team channels
- Create a bot to answer common questions
- Integrate with your existing tools and services
- And much more!
