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 TinyURL API lets you shorten URLs seamlessly, which can be particularly useful when dealing with lengthy or complex web addresses. With Pipedream, you can integrate the TinyURL API to create concise, manageable links that can be easily shared, tracked, or embedded in various digital content. Beyond simple URL shortening, using Pipedream's serverless platform enables you to automate workflows that involve generating, distributing, and monitoring TinyURLs in conjunction with other apps and services.
module.exports = defineComponent({
props: {
tinyurl: {
type: "app",
app: "tinyurl",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return (await require("@pipedream/platform").axios($, {
url: `https://api.tinyurl.com/create/`,
method: `post`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.tinyurl.$auth.api_token}`,
},
data: {
url: `ftp://www.example.com/my-really-long-link-that-I-need-to-shorten/84378949`,
}
})).data
},
})
