Is there a way I can save a node as a template to use across workflows?

To save a node as a template to use across workflows in Pipedream, you can share your entire workflow as a template. Here’s how you can do it: 1. Open the Workflow: Navigate to the workflow you want to share in your Pipedream account. 2. Publish as a Template: In the top right menu of the workflow page, select Publish as a template. This will create a shareable link that others can use to copy your workflow. 3. Share the Link: You can share this link with colleagues or followers. When someone uses the link, they can copy your workflow, connect their own accounts, and make any necessary edits. Please note that when you share a workflow as a template, your connected accounts and event history are not shared. For more detailed instructions, you can refer to the Pipedream documentation. If you have any further questions or need additional support, feel free to visit Pipedream Support.

how about just a single node?

It seems like your question is a bit unclear. Could you please provide more context or clarify what you mean by “a single node”? Are you referring to a single step in a Pipedream workflow, a specific Node.js function, or something else? This will help me provide a more accurate and helpful response.

how can i publish a single nodejs step as a custom action?

To publish a single Node.js step as a custom action in Pipedream, you can follow these steps: 1. Add Required Properties: In your Node.js code step, make sure to include the following properties to make it publishable: - version - name - key - type Here’s an example of how your code step should look: ```
import { parseISO, format } from ‘date-fns’; // Returns a formatted datetime string export default defineComponent({ name: ‘Format Date’, version: ‘0.0.1’, key: ‘format-date’, type: ‘action’, props: { date: { type: “string”, label: “Date”, description: “Date to be formatted”, }, format: { type: ‘string’, label: “Format”, description: “Format to apply to the date. See date-fns format as a reference.” } }, async run({ $ }) { const formatted = format(parseISO(this.date), this.format); return formatted; }, })
