Spotify Overview#

The Spotify API on Pipedream offers a creative playground for music lovers and developers alike. With it, you can manage playlists, search for music, get recently played tracks, and manipulate playback among other features. It's a gateway to a rich dataset of music and user information, enabling the creation of personalized and dynamic music experiences.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common.mjs";

export default {
  dedupe: "unique",
  type: "source",
  key: "spotify-new-playlist",
  name: "New Playlist",
  description: "Emit new event when a new playlist is created or followed by the current Spotify user.",
  version: "0.1.1",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
  },
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getMeta({
      id,
      name: summary,
    }) {
      const ts = Date.now();
      return {
        id,
        summary,
        ts,
      };
    },
  },
  async run() {
    const playlists = await this.spotify._paginate(this.spotify.getPlaylists.bind(this));
    for (const playlist of playlists) {
      this.$emit(playlist, this.getMeta(playlist));
    }
  },
};

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
Spotify	`spotify`	`app`	This component uses the Spotify app.
Polling interval	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	How often to poll the Spotify API for new events

Trigger Authentication#

Spotify uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Spotify account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Spotify and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Spotify API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

SWAPI - Star Wars Overview#

The SWAPI - Star Wars API is a treasure trove of structured data from the Star Wars universe. It's a go-to resource for fetching information about planets, spaceships, vehicles, people, films, and species from the iconic franchise. Using Pipedream, you can harness this data to create automations and workflows that trigger based on specific criteria from SWAPI. For instance, you could set up a workflow that notifies you when new data is added, enrich customer profiles with their favorite Star Wars characters, or even use it for trivia games by pulling random facts.

Action Code#

const swapi = require("../../swapi.app.js");
const axios = require("axios");

module.exports = {
  key: "swapi-get-film",
  name: "Get Film",
  version: "0.0.13",
  description: "Get a film",
  type: "action",
  props: {
    swapi,
    film: {
      propDefinition: [
        swapi,
        "film",
      ],
    },
  },
  async run() {
    return (await axios({
      url: `https://swapi.dev/api/films/${this.film}`,
    })).data;
  },
};
