The UK gov Vehicle Enquiry API provides access to key vehicle data, allowing users to retrieve information about a vehicle's make, model, color, fuel type, CO2 emissions, and more by inputting its registration number. Leveraging this API within Pipedream opens up a realm of possibilities for automating tasks related to vehicle management, compliance checks, and data aggregation for businesses in the automotive industry or for public sector uses.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
uk_gov_vehecle_enquiry_api: {

app: "uk_gov_vehecle_enquiry_api",

},
async run({steps, $}) {
const data = {

return await axios($, {

Data Stores are a key-value store that allow you to persist state and share data across workflows. You can perform CRUD operations, enabling dynamic data management within your serverless architecture. Use it to save results from API calls, user inputs, or interim data; then read, update, or enrich this data in subsequent steps or workflows. Data Stores simplify stateful logic and cross-workflow communication, making them ideal for tracking process statuses, aggregating metrics, or serving as a simple configuration store.
export default defineComponent({
props: {
myDataStore: {
type: "data_store",
},
},
async run({ steps, $ }) {
await this.myDataStore.set("key_here","Any serializable JSON as the value")
return await this.myDataStore.get("key_here")
},
})
