Overview of Softr#

The Softr API unlocks the power to automate and integrate Softr-built web apps with a multitude of external services and internal workflows. With it, you can streamline data manipulation, sync content, or trigger actions based on specific events. Create, update, and fetch data from your Softr applications, and leverage this functionality to enhance user experience, improve operational efficiency, and reduce manual workloads. When used on Pipedream, the API can connect with other apps to create robust, serverless workflows that operate in real-time or on a scheduled basis.

Connect Softr#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    softr: {
      type: "app",
      app: "softr",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://studio-api.softr.io/v1/api/users`,
      headers: {
        "Softr-Api-Key": `${this.softr.$auth.api_key}`,
        "Softr-Domain": `${this.softr.$auth.domain}`,
        "Content-Type": `application/json`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Node#

Develop, run and deploy your Node.js code in Pipedream workflows, using it between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and File Stores.

This includes installing NPM packages, within your code without having to manage a package.json file or running npm install.

Below is an example of installing the axios package in a Pipedream Node.js code step. Pipedream imports the axios package, performs the API request, and shares the response with subsequent workflow steps:

Connect Node#

// To use previous step data, pass the `steps` object to the run() function
export default defineComponent({
  async run({ steps, $ }) {
    // Return data to use it in future steps
    return steps.trigger.event
  },
})
