The Pipedream Slack app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Slack API. Once you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your workspace, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Slack actions or write your own code against the Slack API.
The Pipedream Slack app is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
slack: {
type: "app",
app: "slack",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://slack.com/api/users.profile.get`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.slack.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})
The ClickTime API provides programmatic access to the ClickTime platform, which specializes in time tracking and project management. Leveraging this API within Pipedream allows you to automate various aspects of time tracking, employee management, and reporting. For example, you can create workflows that sync time entry data with other systems, automate notifications based on time tracking metrics, or even manage projects and tasks dynamically. Pipedream's serverless platform facilitates these automations by triggering workflows with HTTP requests, schedules, or app-based events, and offers the capability to connect to numerous other services and APIs to extend functionality further.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
clicktime: {
type: "app",
app: "clicktime",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.clicktime.com/v2/me`,
headers: {
"Authorization": `Token ${this.clicktime.$auth.api_token}`,
