PrintNode Overview#

The PrintNode API on Pipedream allows you to integrate cloud printing capabilities into workflows. It supports automating print jobs, managing printers, and querying printer status. With Pipedream's ability to connect to hundreds of apps, you can trigger print jobs from emails, forms, databases, or custom events. The API's functions can be weaved into broader business processes to streamline document handling.

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
PrintNode	`printnode`	`app`	This component uses the PrintNode app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.interface.http` to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the `run()` method of the component.
Event Types	`eventTypes`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`computer stateprint job state`

Trigger Authentication#

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

About PrintNode#

Data Stores Overview#

Data Stores are a key-value store that allow you to persist state and share data across workflows. You can perform CRUD operations, enabling dynamic data management within your serverless architecture. Use it to save results from API calls, user inputs, or interim data; then read, update, or enrich this data in subsequent steps or workflows. Data Stores simplify stateful logic and cross-workflow communication, making them ideal for tracking process statuses, aggregating metrics, or serving as a simple configuration store.
