Overview#
The Data.Police.UK API provides access to a wide array of UK crime data, allowing users to query information about street-level crimes, outcomes, and the location of police stations. You can leverage this data within Pipedream to build automated workflows that react to new data, analyze crime trends, or integrate with other services to enhance public awareness and safety. With Pipedream, you can create serverless workflows that connect Data.Police.UK API with other apps to streamline tasks, generate reports, or trigger alerts based on crime data.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({

}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
