Zulip API Integrations

Build and run workflows using the Zulip API. Use 1000s of source-available triggers and actions across 1000+ apps. Or write custom code to integrate any app or API in seconds.

Overview

The Zulip API allows developers to create powerful applications that integrate with their Zulip workspaces. This can be used to build advanced automation, custom integrations, and other features not built into the Zulip platform.

With the Zulip API you can create automated bots, build custom notification systems, manage users and groups, and even build advanced analytics. The API provides access to the same data stored in the Zulip web and mobile applications, allowing applications to use the same data and features.

Here are some examples of things you can build with the Zulip API:

  • Automated bots: Create automated bots which respond to messages according to logic you define.
  • Custom notifications: Send notifications to specific users in a stream or send bulk notifications to an entire organization or group.
  • Manage users and groups: Automatically create and manage users and groups.
  • Advanced analytics: Analyze patterns and trends in conversations and build visualizations to present the data.
  • Custom integrations: Integrate other applications and services like social media, project management tools, and more.
  • Create custom apps: Create your own web applications that interact with Zulip.

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({

      app: "zulip",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://${this.zulip.$auth.domain}.zulipchat.com/api/v1/users/me`,
      auth: {
        username: `${this.zulip.$auth.email}`,
        password: `${this.zulip.$auth.api_key}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Authentication

Zulip uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Zulip account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Zulip APIs in both code and no-code steps.

Zulip requires their users enter their Zulip email to connect to their API. For more info, refer to Zulip’s documentation.

To retrieve your API Key,

  • Navigate to your Zulip account and sign in
  • Go to “Personal Settings” > “Account & Privacy”

Your domain is 1234 if your Zulip URL is https://1234.zulipchat.com/
