Z-API
An API for integration with WhatsApp.
Integrate the Z-API API with the Python API
Setup the Z-API API trigger to run a workflow which integrates with the Python API. Pipedream's integration platform allows you to integrate Z-API and Python remarkably fast. Free for developers.
Popular Z-API and Python Actions#
Write Python and use any of the 350k+ PyPi packages available. Refer to the Pipedream Python docs to learn more.
Overview of Z-API#
The Z-API API facilitates WhatsApp messaging automation, allowing users to send and receive messages, manage contacts, and orchestrate chatbots within the popular messaging platform. On Pipedream, you can leverage this API to create powerful serverless workflows that trigger actions in response to WhatsApp events, automate message flows, and integrate with myriad other services without managing infrastructure.
Connect Z-API#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
z_api: {
type: "app",
app: "z_api",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.z-api.io/instances/${this.z_api.$auth.instance_id}/token/${this.z_api.$auth.token_id}/contacts`,
headers: {
"Client-Token": `${this.z_api.$auth.account_security_token}`,
},
})
},
})
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}}
