Pipes

Quickstart

Pipes are composable enrichment functions. Use pipes to to find email addresses, phone numbers, or trigger automations like a slack messages.

Making requests

This request enriches one input object. The pipe people:workemail:waterfall@1 adds a field called work_email to your input objects. You can find all available enrichments in the pipe catalog.

const result = await fetch("https://api.pipe0.com/v1/pipes/run", {
    method: "POST",
    headers: {
        "Authorization": `Bearer ${API_KEY}`,
        "Content-Type": "application/json"
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
        config: {
            environemnt: "production",
        },
        pipes: [
        {
            pipe_id: "people:workemail:waterfall@1"
        },
        ],
        input: [
            {
                id: 1,
                name: "John Doe",
                company_website_url: "https://pipe0.com"
            }
        ]
    })
});

The result will look something like this:

[
    {
        "id": 1,
        "name": "John Doe",
        "company_website_url": "https://pipe0.com",
        "work_email": "john@pipe0.com"
    }
]

The response will contain more information than displayed here. Learn how to work with response objects.

Getting the task result

The request to POST https://api.pipe0.com/v1/pipes/run will create an enrichment task. To get the result of the task, poll the GET https://api.pipe0.com/v1/pipes/check/{task_id} endpoint until the task status is completed.

const result = await fetch("https://api.pipe0.com/v1/pipes/check/${taskId}", {
    method: "POST",
    headers: {
        "Authorization": `Bearer ${API_KEY}`
    }
});

Getting the result without polling

Instead of creating your task with the endpoint POST https://api.pipe0.com/v1/pipes/run use the endpoint POST https://api.pipe0.com/v1/pipes/run/sync. Use the same payload for both endpoints. The /sync endpoint will try to return the completed result in one round-trip.
