Overview of WhatsApp Business#
The WhatsApp Business API on Pipedream is a powerful avenue for automating interactions with customers on WhatsApp. You can send messages, set up automated responses, and manage conversations on a large scale. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can create workflows that trigger from various events and connect WhatsApp Business with numerous other apps to automate tasks, notify teams, sync data, and more, all without managing infrastructure.
Connect WhatsApp Business#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
whatsapp_business: {
type: "app",
app: "whatsapp_business",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://graph.facebook.com/v15.0/${this.whatsapp_business.$auth.business_account_id}/phone_numbers`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.whatsapp_business.$auth.permanent_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})
Overview of Slack#
The Pipedream Slack app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Slack API. Once 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({

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}`,
},
})
},
})
