Product Hunt Overview#

The Product Hunt API taps into a vibrant community of tech enthusiasts and makers, allowing you to interact with their platform programmatically. With it, you can retrieve details on the latest trending products, post comments, and gather user data. Automating these interactions can keep you informed on tech trends, engage with the community, and analyze market interests.

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
Product Hunt	`productHunt`	`app`	This component uses the Product Hunt app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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