Connect Shorten.REST#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
shorten_rest: {
type: "app",
app: "shorten_rest",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.shorten.rest/clicks`,
headers: {
"Content-Type": `application/json`,
"x-api-key": `${this.shorten_rest.$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
},
