Schedule Overview#

The Schedule app in Pipedream is a powerful tool that allows you to trigger workflows at regular intervals, ranging from every minute to once a year. This enables the automation of repetitive tasks and the scheduling of actions to occur without manual intervention. By leveraging this API, you can execute code, run integrations, and process data on a reliable schedule, all within Pipedream's serverless environment.

import schedule from "../../schedule.app.mjs";

export default {

        "cron",
      ],
    },

Imgur Overview#

The Imgur API offers a way to programmatically engage with the Imgur platform, allowing for the upload and management of images, as well as access to Imgur's vast gallery of community images. With Pipedream, you can harness this API to create automated workflows that respond to various triggers and integrate with other services. This can facilitate tasks like automated image sharing, content moderation, or social media management.

Action Code#

import imgur from "../../imgur.app.mjs";

export default {
  name: "Upload Image",
  version: "0.1.0",
  key: "imgur-upload-image",
  description: "Upload an image to Imgur",
  props: {
    imgur,
    image: {
      type: "string",
      label: "Image",
      description: "A base 64 encoded image",
    },
  },
  type: "action",
  async run({ $ }) {
    const res = await this.imgur.uploadImage(this.image);

    if (!res.status == 200) {
      $.export("response", res);
      return $.flow.exit("Failed to upload.");
    }

    return res;
  },
};

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

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