Overview#
VisualPing is a tool that lets you monitor web pages for changes. Using its API with Pipedream, you can automate reactions to those changes. For instance, you can set up workflows that notify you or your team when specific parts of a web page update, or use changes to trigger downstream actions in other apps. Pipedream's serverless platform enables you to connect VisualPing with a vast array of apps to create custom, automated workflows without writing a lot of code.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
visualping: {
type: "app",
app: "visualping",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://account.api.visualping.io/describe-user`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.visualping.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})
Example Use Cases#

Sync Changes to Google Sheets: Track changes to a set of curated web pages and append details of those changes to a Google Sheet. This is excellent for SEO professionals who want to monitor web page updates and consolidate their findings in an easily accessible format.
