The USPS API provides various functionalities such as tracking shipments, calculating shipping prices, and scheduling pickups, making it a valuable tool for automating logistics and e-commerce operations. Integrating the USPS API with Pipedream allows you to create serverless workflows that can enhance how you manage shipping tasks, alert systems, or update order statuses in real-time, without needing to manage infrastructure.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
usps: {
type: "app",
app: "usps",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {

params: {
XML: `<AddressValidateRequest USERID="${this.usps.$auth.username}"><Revision>1</Revision>
<Address ID="{your_address_id}">

The Pipedream Utils app is a set of pre-built functions that streamline common tasks in your workflows. It acts like a Swiss Army knife for developers, providing essential tools such as format conversion, date manipulation, and text processing. By leveraging these functions, you can reduce the boilerplate code needed for routine operations, speeding up the development of intricate automations. The Helper Functions API can be a game changer when it comes to tasks like parsing dates in user-friendly formats, encoding and decoding data, or generating UUIDs, making them more efficient and less error-prone.
