A very simple Open Graph API. Don't waste time and resources scraping sites or trying to unfurl urls.
Go to siteThe OpenGraph.io API enables you to fetch Open Graph data from websites, which is useful for previewing content like images, titles, and descriptions the way social platforms do. Integrating OpenGraph.io with Pipedream allows you to automate the retrieval of this data in response to various triggers and to use it in workflows that involve other apps and services.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
opengraph_io: {
type: "app",
app: "opengraph_io",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://opengraph.io/api/1.1/site/https%3A%2F%2Fpipedream.com`,
params: {
app_id: `${this.opengraph_io.$auth.api_key}`,
},
})
},
})
Content Preview on Social Media Posts: Automatically fetch Open Graph data from URLs within a dataset or a stream of user-generated content. Then, use this data to create rich social media posts on platforms like Twitter or Facebook that include images, titles, and descriptions for enhanced engagement.
Enhanced Bookmarking for Read-It-Later Services: In a workflow where users save URLs to read later, utilize OpenGraph.io to retrieve metadata and create a more informative and visually appealing list of saved articles. This could be combined with data stores in Pipedream to keep track of user-saved URLs and their metadata.
SEO Analysis and Reporting: Automate the collection of Open Graph data for a set of URLs as part of an SEO tool or service. You can feed this data into a report generator or an analysis tool to help understand how well a site's content is optimized for social sharing, potentially coupling it with Google Sheets for data storage and visualization.
