Overview of PostGrid Print & Mail#

The PostGrid Print & Mail API offers seamless print and mail solutions, enabling the automation of sending personalized letters, postcards, checks, and more. With this API, you can systematize direct mail campaigns, transactional mailings, or on-demand dispatch without managing printing infrastructure. In Pipedream, you can harness this capability to interlace PostGrid with an array of other services and triggers, creating workflows that respond to events such as form submissions, scheduled campaigns, or customer actions.

Connect PostGrid Print & Mail#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    postgrid: {
      type: "app",
      app: "postgrid",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://api.postgrid.com/print-mail/v1/contacts`,
      headers: {
        "x-api-key": `${this.postgrid.$auth.api_key}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

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.

Connect Delay#

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