The Meetup API on Pipedream allows you to interact with the various aspects of the Meetup platform, such as accessing group information, RSVPs, and events. By leveraging this API, you can automate event management tasks, sync Meetup data with other services, and enhance user engagement by tapping into the community-driven features of Meetup. The integration offers possibilities for streamlining event coordination, sending notifications, and analyzing attendee data for better event planning.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
meetup: {
type: "app",
app: "meetup",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
const data = {
"query": `query { self { id name } }`,
}
return await axios($, {
method: "post",
url: `https://api.meetup.com/gql`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.meetup.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
},
data,
})
},
})
Automated Event Creation and Posting
Use the Meetup API on Pipedream to automatically create and post new events to your Meetup group from an external event management system or CMS. This can be particularly useful for organizations that run frequent events and want to ensure their Meetup group stays up-to-date without manual intervention.
RSVP Syncing and Communication
Sync RSVPs from Meetup events to a Google Sheet for easy access and management. Set up automated email or SMS notifications using the Twilio app on Pipedream to thank attendees for registering and provide them with additional information or reminders about the event.
Attendee Data Analysis and Reporting
Collect data on event attendees and their interactions from the Meetup API and send it to a data analysis tool like Google Data Studio. Use this information to generate insights on event performance, member engagement, and to drive decisions for future event planning.
Meetup uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Meetup account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Meetup and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Meetup API.
Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
