Popular Pipedream and Puppeteer Triggers#
Exposes an HTTP API for scheduling messages to be emitted at a future time
Emit new event based on a time interval before an upcoming event in the calendar. This source uses Pipedream's Task Scheduler. See the documentation for more information and instructions for connecting your Pipedream account.
Emit new event at a specified time before a card is due.
Emit new event when a Calendar event is upcoming, this source is using reminderMinutesBeforeStart property of the event to determine the time it should emit.

Overview of Pipedream#
Pipedream is an API that allows you to build applications that can connect to
various data sources and processes them in real-time. You can use Pipedream to
create applications that can perform ETL (Extract, Transform, and Load) tasks,
as well as to create data-driven workflows.
Some examples of applications you can build using the Pipedream API include:
- An application that can extract data from a database, transform it, and then
load it into another database. - An application that can monitor a data source for changes, and then trigger a
workflow in response to those changes. - An application that can poll an API for new data, and then process that data
in real-time.
Connect Pipedream#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
pipedream: {
type: "app",
app: "pipedream",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.pipedream.com/v1/users/me`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.pipedream.$auth.api_key}`,
},
})
},
})
Overview of Puppeteer#
Puppeteer is a Node.js library which provides a high-level API to control Chrome/Chromium over the DevTools Protocol. Puppeteer runs in headless mode on Chromium on Pipedream.
Using Puppeteer you can perform tasks including:
- Capture Screenshots: Convert webpages into images.
- Processing PDFs: parse and scan PDFs.
- Web Scraping: Extract data from websites.
- UI/UX Testing: Verify user interface and experience.
- Integration with Test Frameworks: Combine with testing frameworks.
- Task Automation: Automate web-related tasks like form filling.
- Functional Testing: Automate user interactions to test web application functionality.
- Regression Testing: Ensure new code changes don't introduce bugs.
Connect Puppeteer#
import { puppeteer } from '@pipedream/browsers';
export default defineComponent({
async run({steps, $}) {
const browser = await puppeteer.browser();
// Interact with the web page programmatically
// See Puppeeter's Page documentation for available methods:
// https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.page
const page = await browser.newPage();
await page.goto('https://pipedream.com/');
const title = await page.title();
const content = await page.content();
// The browser needs to be closed, otherwise the step will hang
await browser.close();
return { title, content }
},
