Overview of Newslit#
The Newslit API offers access to a robust news database, allowing you to pull in news articles, blog posts, and journalistic content from a variety of sources. Integrated with Pipedream, you can automate workflows to track brand mentions, monitor industry updates, or aggregate news for data analysis. The API's capabilities to filter by keyword, date, language, and more, combined with Pipedream's ability to connect to numerous other services, open up a wide range of potential automations.
Connect Newslit#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
newslit: {
type: "app",
app: "newslit",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://newslit-news-search.p.rapidapi.com/news`,
headers: {
"X-RapidAPI-Key": `${this.newslit.$auth.rapid_api_key}`,
"X-RapidAPI-Host": `newslit-news-search.p.rapidapi.com`,
},
params: {
"q": `{YOUR_NEWS_QUERY}`,
},
})
},
})
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!
Connect Slack#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
slack: {
type: "app",
app: "slack",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://slack.com/api/users.profile.get`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.slack.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})
