Vision6 Overview#

The Vision6 API offers a powerful way to automate email marketing and audience engagement directly through Pipedream. With it, you can programmatically manage lists, contacts, and messages, and also track campaign performance. This API provides granular control over email workflows, enabling custom triggers, targeted actions, and detailed analytics retrieval. The combination of Vision6 with Pipedream's serverless platform unlocks endless possibilities for syncing data, personalizing communication, and optimizing marketing strategies without manual intervention.

        limit,
      });
      return contacts;
    },
    async getContacts(since) {
      return this.getPaginatedContacts(this.list, {
        ["last_modified_time:in"]: this.formatSinceDate(since),
      });
    },
    generateMeta(contact) {
      const ts = Date.parse(contact.last_modified_time);
      return {

        summary: `Updated Contact ID: ${contact.id}`,
        ts,
      };
    },

Pinterest Overview#

The Pinterest API opens a portal to interact programmatically with Pinterest's rich data, including boards, pins, and user information. By leveraging this API on Pipedream, you can automate actions like posting new pins, extracting pin data for analysis, and synchronizing Pinterest content with other platforms. The potential extends to marketing optimization, content management, and audience engagement, all automated and integrated within the Pipedream ecosystem.
