Overview of VisualPing#
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.
Connect VisualPing#
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}`,
},
})
},
})
Overview of Slack#
The Pipedream Slack app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Slack API. When you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your workspace, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Slack actions, or write your own code against the Slack API.
The Pipedream Slack app is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.
- Automate posting updates to your team channels
- Create a bot to answer common questions
- Integrate with your existing tools and services
- And much more!
Connect Slack#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
slack: {
type: "app",
app: "slack",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://slack.com/api/users.profile.get`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.slack.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})
