Overview of ScrapingBee

The ScrapingBee API lets you extract data from web pages programmatically. It handles headless browsers and rotating proxies, so you can focus on data extraction without worrying about common web scraping issues like getting blocked. On Pipedream, you can tap into ScrapingBee's capability to create serverless workflows that scrape web data and connect them with numerous services for processing, storing, or triggering actions.

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:

// To use previous step data, pass the `steps` object to the run() function

    // Return data to use it in future steps
    return steps.trigger.event
  },
