Write Python and use any of the 350k+ PyPi packages available. Refer to the Pipedream Python docs to learn more.
Retrieve contents of documents based on a list of document IDs. See the documentation. It is used to instantly get content for documents, given the IDs of the documents. We currently support extracts - the first 1000 tokens (~750 words) of parsed HTML for a site. Note that each piece of content retrieved costs 1 request. Also note that instant is a little bit of a lie if you are using keyword search, in which case contents might take a few seconds to retrieve.
Perform a search with a Metaphor prompt-engineered query and retrieve a list of relevant results. See the documentation

Overview of Python#
Develop, run and deploy your Python code in Pipedream workflows. Integrate seamlessly between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and manipulate files within a workflow.
This includes installing PyPI packages, within your code without having to manage a requirements.txt file or running pip.
Below is an example of using Python to access data from the trigger of the workflow, and sharing it with subsequent workflow steps:
Connect Python#
def handler(pd: "pipedream"):
# Reference data from previous steps
print(pd.steps["trigger"]["context"]["id"])
# Return data for use in future steps
return {"foo": {"test":True}}
