Overview of Metabase#

The Metabase API opens a gateway to interact with Metabase programmatically, enabling you to automate reporting, dashboards, and data analysis operations. With Pipedream, you can harness this API to trigger workflows, manipulate data, and integrate with various other apps to create a seamless data ecosystem. Think of syncing Metabase insights with other tools, automating report generation, or reacting to events within your Metabase instance in real-time.

Connect Metabase#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    metabase: {
      type: "app",
      app: "metabase",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `${this.metabase.$auth.server_address}/api/user/current`,
      headers: {
        "X-Metabase-Session": `${this.metabase.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Node#

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:

Connect Node#

// 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
  },
})
