VAT Information and Exchange System
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.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({

}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://viesapi.eu/${this.vies_api.$auth.environment}/check/account/status`,
headers: {
"accept": `application/xml`,
},
auth: {
username: `${this.vies_api.$auth.api_key_id}`,
password: `${this.vies_api.$auth.api_key}`,
},
})
},
})
The Schedule app in Pipedream is a powerful tool that allows you to trigger workflows at regular intervals, ranging from every minute to once a year. This enables the automation of repetitive tasks and the scheduling of actions to occur without manual intervention. By leveraging this API, you can execute code, run integrations, and process data on a reliable schedule, all within Pipedream's serverless environment.
