Popular VIES API and Node Actions#
Write custom Node.js code and use any of the 400k+ npm packages available. Refer to the Pipedream Node docs to learn more.
Overview of VIES API#
The VIES (VAT Information Exchange System) API lets you validate European VAT numbers. It's a tool for checking the validity of VAT numbers issued by any EU Member State, which is crucial for B2B transactions within the EU to ensure VAT compliance. In Pipedream, you can use the VIES API to automate workflows related to customer verification, invoicing, and compliance checks, streamlining the process of doing business across European borders.
Connect VIES API#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
vies_api: {
type: "app",
app: "vies_api",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://viesapi.eu/${this.vies_api.$auth.environment}/check/account/status`,

"accept": `application/xml`,
},
auth: {
username: `${this.vies_api.$auth.api_key_id}`,
password: `${this.vies_api.$auth.api_key}`,
},
})
},
})
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:

// 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
},
