Discord Overview#

The Discord API interacts seamlessly with Pipedream, empowering you to craft customized automations and workflows for your Discord server. With this powerful integration, you can automate tasks like message posting, user management, and notifications, based on a myriad of triggers and actions from different apps. These automations can enhance the Discord experience for community moderators and members, by synchronizing with external tools, organizing community engagement, and streamlining notifications.

Fomo Overview#

The Fomo API enables real-time social proof by broadcasting customer interactions, like purchases or sign-ups, to site visitors, fostering a sense of urgency and trust. Leveraging this API on Pipedream, developers can create dynamic, event-driven workflows that respond to these social cues with automated actions like sending emails, updating CRM records, or triggering custom notifications.

About Fomo#

Fomo delivers social proof to create website conversion momentum. The Fomo app does this by enabling online experience that feels like a busy store. When a person converts -- whether buying a new jacket, signing up for a retreat, or anything else -- Fomo shows this activity off to other visitors to drive action.
