Overview of Slack#
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.
- Automate posting updates to your team channels
- Create a bot to answer common questions
- Integrate with your existing tools and services
- And much more!
Connect Slack#
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}`,
},
})
},
})
Overview of Discourse#
The Discourse API empowers developers to interact programmatically with Discourse forums, allowing for a myriad of automations and integrations. Using Pipedream, you can harness this API for tasks such as syncing forum data with other platforms, automating user management, or triggering workflows based on forum activity. The key is in creatively coupling Discourse events with Pipedream's capabilities to streamline community interactions and administration.
