Details#

This integration uses pre-built, source-available components from Pipedream's GitHub repo. These components are developed by Pipedream and the community, and verified and maintained by Pipedream.

To contribute an update to an existing component or create a new component, create a PR on GitHub. If you're new to Pipedream component development, you can start with quickstarts for trigger span and action development, and then review the component API reference.

New Scheduled Tasks on Pipedream

Description:Exposes an HTTP API for scheduling messages to be emitted at a future time

Pipedream Overview#

Pipedream is an API that allows you to build applications that can connect to
various data sources and processes them in real-time. You can use Pipedream to
create applications that can perform ETL (Extract, Transform, and Load) tasks,
as well as to create data-driven workflows.

Some examples of applications you can build using the Pipedream API include:

An application that can extract data from a database, transform it, and then
load it into another database.
An application that can monitor a data source for changes, and then trigger a
workflow in response to those changes.
An application that can poll an API for new data, and then process that data
in real-time.

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
Pipedream	`pipedream`	`app`	This component uses the Pipedream app.
Secret	`secret`	`string`	Optional but recommended: if you enter a secret here, you must pass this value in the `x-pd-secret` HTTP header when making requests
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.interface.http` to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the `run()` method of the component.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.

Trigger Authentication#

Pipedream uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Pipedream account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Pipedream APIs in both code and no-code steps.

Roboflow Overview#

The Roboflow API is a robust machine learning interface that allows developers to upload, annotate, train, and deploy computer vision models. Using Pipedream, you can create powerful, serverless workflows to automate tasks involving image and video processing. With the API, you can programmatically manage datasets, kick off model training, and utilize trained models to analyze new data.
