Overview of Philips Hue#

The Philips Hue API offers rich control over Philips Hue smart lighting systems. Via Pipedream, you can automate your lighting based on various triggers – think syncing lights with the sun's cycle, changing color to indicate new emails, or even integrating with motion sensors for a smart-home experience. With Pipedream's capabilities to connect to countless services, the possibilities of creating personalized lighting scenarios are vast, limited only by your imagination and the availability of triggers or events from other services and devices.

Connect Philips Hue#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    philips_hue: {
      type: "app",
      app: "philips_hue",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://api.meethue.com/v2/api/resource`,
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${this.philips_hue.$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
  },
})
