To achieve this in Pipedream, you can create an HTTP trigger and then use a code step to handle different paths like /enroll and /create. Here’s an example of how you can set this up: 1. Create a new workflow with an HTTP trigger. 2. Add a code step after the HTTP trigger and use the following code: export default defineComponent({ async run({ steps, $ }) { const path = steps.trigger.event.path; if (path === "/enroll") { // Handle the enroll action here } else if (path === "/create") { // Handle the create action here } else { // Handle other paths or return an error } }, }); In this example, the path variable will contain the path of the incoming HTTP request. Based on the path, you can add your logic for the /enroll and /create actions within the respective if-else blocks.

I’ll use a source instead and direct the path to WF based on the URL
