Integrate the PostGrid Print & Mail API with the Slack API

Setup the PostGrid Print & Mail API trigger to run a workflow which integrates with the Slack API. Pipedream's integration platform allows you to integrate PostGrid Print & Mail and Slack remarkably fast. Free for developers.

Overview of PostGrid Print & Mail#

The PostGrid Print & Mail API offers seamless print and mail solutions, enabling the automation of sending personalized letters, postcards, checks, and more. With this API, you can systematize direct mail campaigns, transactional mailings, or on-demand dispatch without managing printing infrastructure. In Pipedream, you can harness this capability to interlace PostGrid with an array of other services and triggers, creating workflows that respond to events such as form submissions, scheduled campaigns, or customer actions.

Connect PostGrid Print & Mail#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    postgrid: {
      type: "app",
      app: "postgrid",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://api.postgrid.com/print-mail/v1/contacts`,
      headers: {
        "x-api-key": `${this.postgrid.$auth.api_key}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Slack#

The Pipedream Slack app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Slack API. Once you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your workspace, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Slack actions or write your own code against the Slack API.

The Pipedream Slack app is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.

Automate posting updates to your team channels
Create a bot to answer common questions
Integrate with your existing tools and services
And much more!

      type: "app",
      app: "slack",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {

      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${this.slack.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
      },
    })

Airtable Webhooks with Slack + Pipedream

We love Airtable here at Pipedream. But Airtable lacks one killer feature — webhooks. We took advantage of Airtable’s Slack notifications and built a way to send webhooks to an HTTP endpoint every time a record is created or updated in a base. It takes 10 minutes to setup and it’s free.
