The Pinboard API on Pipedream allows for the automation of social media content curation and sharing by interacting with a user's Pinboard account. This API provides the ability to programmatically add, update, and retrieve bookmarks, enabling users to streamline their bookmark management. Leveraging Pipedream's capabilities, developers can create sophisticated workflows that react to various triggers, manipulate data, and connect to numerous other services to enhance productivity and data management.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
pinboard: {
type: "app",
app: "pinboard",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.pinboard.in/v1/posts/update`,
params: {
auth_token: `${this.pinboard.$auth.api_token}`,
},
})
},
})
Automated Bookmark Archiving: Create a workflow that triggers daily, searching for bookmarks tagged with "archive" in your Pinboard account, and automatically backing them up to a Google Drive folder. This ensures a secure and accessible copy of your essential bookmarks.
Content Sharing Pipeline: Develop a system where any new bookmark tagged "share" on Pinboard triggers a Pipedream workflow, which then formats the content and posts it to your Twitter and LinkedIn profiles, helping maintain an active social media presence with relevant links.
Email Digest of New Bookmarks: Set up a Pipedream workflow that compiles a weekly email digest of all new bookmarks added to Pinboard with a specific tag, such as "read-later", and sends this curated list to your preferred email address, keeping you informed about your bookmarked content without manual checking.
Pinboard uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Pinboard account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Pinboard APIs in both code and no-code steps.
