Recreation.gov Overview#

The Recreation.gov API provides access to data about federal recreational activities and areas. With it, you can fetch details about campsites, tours, permits, and articles. On Pipedream, leverage this API to automate notifications, analyze recreational data, or integrate with other services for trip planning or environmental monitoring.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/count-based.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "recreation_gov-new-recreation-area-added",
  name: "New Recreation Area Added Event",
  description: "Emit new events when a new recreation area is added to the Recreation.gov database. [See the documentation](https://ridb.recreation.gov/docs#/Recreation%20Areas/getRecAreas)",
  version: "0.0.1",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getResourceFnConfig() {
      return {
        resourceFn: this.app.getRecAreas,
        resourceKey: "RECDATA",
      };
    },
    getMeta(item) {
      return {
        ts: new Date().getTime(),
        id: parseInt(item.RecAreaID),
        summary: `New recreation area(${item.RecAreaName}) was added to RDIB`,
      };
    },
    async getItem(item) {
      return this.app.getRecArea({
        recAreaId: parseInt(item.RecAreaID),
      });
    },
  },
};

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Recreation.gov	`app`	`app`	This component uses the Recreation.gov app.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.

Trigger Authentication#

Recreation.gov uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Recreation.gov account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Recreation.gov APIs in both code and no-code steps.

Obtaining a Recreation.gov API Key

Recreation.gov's API requires an API key to authenticate requests.

First sign up for an account at https://recreation.gov.

Then open the API dashboard and enabled developer access under your profile.

This will generate an API key for your account to use with Pipedream.

Copy the API key into the field below.

Create Page from Database Overview#

The Notion Create Page from Database action allows you to add pages to a Notion Database.

This action features easy to use dropdowns that automatically populate your databases as well as your database's properties, also known as columns.

This action interacts with the Notion create a Page API endpoint. The Database selected in the Parent Database ID is used as the parent_id parameter to that endpoint so the page is added to your databaset .
