Overview of Pusher#

The Pusher API offers real-time communication capabilities for apps, enabling instant data delivery. With Pipedream, you can harness these features to create dynamic, real-time workflows that react to events, update clients immediately, and synchronize data across users and systems. It's perfect for powering live dashboards, instant notifications, chat applications, and any scenario where you need to push updates quickly and efficiently. Pipedream's serverless platform empowers you to build and run workflows that leverage Pusher's APIs without managing any infrastructure.

Connect Pusher#

module.exports = defineComponent({
  props: {
    pusher: {
      type: "app",
      app: "pusher",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    const Pusher = require('pusher')
    
    const { appId, key, secret, cluster } = this.pusher.$auth
    const pusher = new Pusher({
      appId,
      key,
      secret,
      cluster,
      useTLS: true
    })
    
    await pusher.trigger('my-channel', 'my-event', {
      "message": "hello world"
    })
  },
})

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)
  },
})
