Does Pipedream have any features for querying an LDAP server? What if that server is on a LAN, not exposed to the internet?
Pipedream doesn’t have a built-in component for querying LDAP servers. However, you can create a custom code step in a Pipedream workflow to interact with an LDAP server using Node.js libraries. Regarding the LDAP server on a LAN not exposed to the internet, Pipedream workflows run in the cloud, so they can only access resources that are publicly available on the internet. If your LDAP server is not exposed to the internet, you won’t be able to access it directly from a Pipedream workflow. You might need to set up a proxy or use a VPN to expose the LDAP server to the internet securely. If you need a specific integration or feature, you can submit a request at New Pipedream Integration Request.
can you tell me more about VPCs and how I can use them to connect to private infra?
Pipedream offers Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) support, which allows you to connect your Pipedream workflows to private infrastructure that’s not exposed to the public internet. To set up a VPC, follow these steps: 1. Open the Virtual Private Clouds tab 2. Click on New VPC in the upper right of the page 3. Enter a network name and click Create It may take 5-10 minutes to complete setting up your network. The status will change to Available when complete. To rename or delete a VPC, navigate to the Virtual Private Cloud settings for your workspace and select the option from the menu at the right of the VPC you want to manage. Please note that VPC support is available only on specific Pipedream plans. For more information on VPCs and how to use them, please visit the Pipedream VPC documentation.
