})
const result = await pd.actions.run({

Inputs
Pipedream supplies the connected account. Your application provides the operation-specific values below. Dynamic inputs are resolved against that user's account.
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
content Content | string | The Markdown or HTML body to render into a branded artifact. Required |
inputFormat Input Format | string | How to interpret content: markdown is converted to styled HTML; html is used as a body fragment. Optional |
formats Formats | string[] | Which artifact formats to produce. Each format charges 1 credit. Defaults to both. Optional |
brandName Brand Name | string | Plain-text header line shown beside the logo (maps to branding.header). Optional |
title Title | string | Title for the hosted share page. Falls back to Brand Name when set; both populate branding.header (the API's single header field). Optional |
accentColor Accent Color | string | CSS color for the accent bar, links, and headings (e.g. #EA580C, rebeccapurple). Optional |
logoUrl Logo URL | string | Absolute http(s) URL of a logo image shown in the artifact header. Optional |
footer Footer | string | Plain-text footer line shown at the bottom of every page. Optional |
expiresIn Expires In (seconds) | integer | Seconds until the hosted artifact URLs expire (3600–2592000). Defaults to 86400 (24 hours). Optional |
