Overview of PingBell#

The PingBell API is a versatile tool for automating interactions with your physical PingBell device. Pipedream, a serverless integration and compute platform, helps you build workflows around the PingBell API with ease. You can craft automations that trigger when someone rings your PingBell, check the device's battery level, and much more, all within Pipedream's simplified workflow environment. By using Pipedream's capabilities, you can integrate with various apps, send notifications through different channels, log data, and implement complex logic to respond to PingBell events.

Connect PingBell#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    pingbell: {
      type: "app",
      app: "pingbell",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://app.pingbell.io/userPingbells`,
      params: {
        api_key: `${this.pingbell.$auth.api_key}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Node#

Develop, run and deploy your Node.js code in Pipedream workflows, using it between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and File Stores.

This includes installing NPM packages, within your code without having to manage a package.json file or running npm install.

Below is an example of installing the axios package in a Pipedream Node.js code step. Pipedream imports the axios package, performs the API request, and shares the response with subsequent workflow steps:

Connect Node#

// To use previous step data, pass the `steps` object to the run() function
export default defineComponent({
  async run({ steps, $ }) {
    // Return data to use it in future steps
    return steps.trigger.event
  },
})
