Overview of Mx Toolbox

The Mx Toolbox API offers a suite of network diagnostic and lookup tools useful for IT professionals and system administrators. With this API on Pipedream, you can automate checks for domain health, DNS records, blacklisting, and more, integrating these insights into your broader IT infrastructure.

Overview of Python

Develop, run and deploy your Python code in Pipedream workflows. Integrate seamlessly between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and manipulate files within a workflow.

This includes installing PyPI packages, within your code without having to manage a requirements.txt file or running pip.

Below is an example of using Python to access data from the trigger of the workflow, and sharing it with subsequent workflow steps:
