World News API Overview

The World News API provides access to news articles from around the world in real-time. With it, you can fetch the latest news by category, country, language, and keyword. In Pipedream, this powerful API integrates into workflows, allowing you to automate actions based on current events, monitor specific topics, and even enrich your applications with timely content.

Pipedream Utils Overview

The Pipedream Utils app is a set of pre-built functions that streamline common tasks in your workflows. It acts like a Swiss Army knife for developers, providing essential tools such as format conversion, date manipulation, and text processing. By leveraging these functions, you can reduce the boilerplate code needed for routine operations, speeding up the development of intricate automations. The Helper Functions API can be a game changer when it comes to tasks like parsing dates in user-friendly formats, encoding and decoding data, or generating UUIDs, making them more efficient and less error-prone.
