Overview of OCRSpace#

The OCRSpace API enables text extraction from images and PDFs, converting various image formats into editable and searchable data. This service is a game-changer for automating document handling processes, where the need to digitize content is crucial. Pipedream's platform allows for seamless integration of OCRSpace's capabilities with various apps to streamline workflows, such as organizing documents, populating databases, or even triggering event-driven actions based on the extracted content.

Connect OCRSpace#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    ocrspace: {
      type: "app",
      app: "ocrspace",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://api.ocr.space/parse/imageurl`,
      params: {
        apikey: `${this.ocrspace.$auth.apikey}`,
        url: `image_url_goes_here`,
      },
    })
  },
})

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:

Connect Python#

def handler(pd: "pipedream"):
  # Reference data from previous steps
  print(pd.steps["trigger"]["context"]["id"])
  # Return data for use in future steps
  return {"foo": {"test":True}}
