Overview of Placekey#

The Placekey API is a powerful tool for standardizing and enriching location data. With Placekey, you can translate addresses or points of interest into a unique, universal location identifier, making it easier to integrate and compare data across different databases or platforms. On Pipedream, you can leverage this API to automate tasks that require precise location matching, enrichment, and deduplication, thus enhancing data analysis, business intelligence, marketing campaigns, and logistic operations.

Connect Placekey#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    placekey: {
      type: "app",
      app: "placekey",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    const data = {
      query: {
        city: [CITY],
        region: [REGION],
        street_address: [STREET_ADDRESS],

Overview of Delay#

The Delay API in Pipedream is a built-in function that allows you to pause a workflow for a specified amount of time. This can be incredibly useful when you need to stagger API calls to avoid rate limits, wait for an external process to complete, or simply introduce a delay between actions in a sequence. With precision up to milliseconds, the Delay API provides a simple yet powerful tool for managing timing in automation workflows.

export default defineComponent({
  async run({steps, $}) {
    // Specify the amount of time to delay your workflow in milliseconds
    return $.flow.delay(5000)
  },
