Integrate the MessageBird API with the Data Stores API

The MessageBird API on Pipedream allows you to automate communications by sending messages, making voice calls, and verifying phone numbers. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can trigger workflows that integrate MessageBird with hundreds of other apps to engage customers, streamline notifications, and improve verification processes. Create custom alert systems, chatbots, or multi-factor authentication (MFA) mechanisms by leveraging the API's capabilities within Pipedream's seamless integration environment.

Connect MessageBird #

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    messagebird: {
      type: "app",
      app: "messagebird",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://rest.messagebird.com/balance`,
      headers: {
        "Authorization": `AccessKey ${this.messagebird.$auth.api_key}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Data Stores#

Data Stores are a key-value store that allow you to persist state and share data across workflows. You can perform CRUD operations, enabling dynamic data management within your serverless architecture. Use it to save results from API calls, user inputs, or interim data; then read, update, or enrich this data in subsequent steps or workflows. Data Stores simplify stateful logic and cross-workflow communication, making them ideal for tracking process statuses, aggregating metrics, or serving as a simple configuration store.

    return await this.myDataStore.get("key_here")
