OVERVIEW#

The Helper Functions app on Pipedream is a set of pre-built functions that
streamline common tasks in your workflows. It acts like a Swiss Army knife for
developers, providing essential tools such as format conversion, date
manipulation, and text processing. By leveraging these functions, you can reduce
the boilerplate code needed for routine operations, speeding up the development
of intricate automations. The Helper Functions API can be a game changer when it
comes to tasks like parsing dates in user-friendly formats, encoding and
decoding data, or generating UUIDs, making them more efficient and less
error-prone.

EXAMPLE USE CASES#

 * Format User Input for Database Storage
   In an app where users submit data through forms, the Helper Functions API can
   be used to sanitize and format user input before it is stored in a database,
   such as Airtable. This ensures that data is clean and uniform, simplifying
   retrieval and analysis.

 * Process Webhook Payloads
   When dealing with incoming webhooks from apps like GitHub, the Helper
   Functions API can parse and transform JSON payloads. This allows you to
   extract specific data points and reformat them for use in other apps like
   Slack for team notifications or JIRA for creating issues.

 * Automate Content Publication Workflow
   A content calendar on Google Sheets can trigger a workflow that uses Helper
   Functions to parse dates and format post titles. The workflow could then use
   this data to automatically schedule and publish content on platforms like
   WordPress or social media apps.
