Formcarry Overview#

Formcarry is an API for form processing, empowering developers to handle form submissions without the need for server-side code. With Formcarry, you can effortlessly collect, process, and integrate form data with various services.

X (Twitter) Overview#

The Twitter API on Pipedream enables you to automate interactions with Twitter, from posting tweets to analyzing social media trends. Pipedream's serverless platform provides the tools to create workflows that trigger on specific Twitter activities, process data, and connect with countless other apps for extensive automation scenarios. With Pipedream's integration, you can listen for events such as new tweets, mentions, or followers, and execute actions like tweeting, retweeting, or even leveraging sentiment analysis to gauge public perception.
