Order Desk Overview#

The Order Desk API allows you to automate and streamline order management processes within the Order Desk platform. With this API, you have the power to create, update, and get detailed information on orders, inventory, and shipments. Pipedream's serverless platform enables you to connect the Order Desk API with numerous other apps and services to build dynamic workflows. Whether you're syncing order data, managing inventory, or connecting to fulfillment services, Pipedream can help you craft custom automations that save time and reduce manual errors.

import commonOrderSources from "../common/common-order-sources.mjs";

export default {

    },
    getMeta({
      id,

        summary: `Updated Order "${id}" at ${date_updated}`,
        ts: date_updated,
      };
    },

SWAPI - Star Wars Overview#

The SWAPI - Star Wars API is a treasure trove of structured data from the Star Wars universe. It's a go-to resource for fetching information about planets, spaceships, vehicles, people, films, and species from the iconic franchise. Using Pipedream, you can harness this data to create automations and workflows that trigger based on specific criteria from SWAPI. For instance, you could set up a workflow that notifies you when new data is added, enrich customer profiles with their favorite Star Wars characters, or even use it for trivia games by pulling random facts.

Action Code#

const swapi = require("../../swapi.app.js");
const axios = require("axios");

module.exports = {
  key: "swapi-get-film",
  name: "Get Film",
  version: "0.0.13",
  description: "Get a film",
  type: "action",
  props: {
    swapi,
    film: {
      propDefinition: [
        swapi,
        "film",
      ],
    },
  },
  async run() {
    return (await axios({
      url: `https://swapi.dev/api/films/${this.film}`,
    })).data;
  },
};
