Target Audience

  • Developers looking to automate API requests without coding.
    - Product Managers who need to gather insights from external APIs quickly.
    - Data Analysts wanting to streamline data collection and analysis workflows.
    - Tech Enthusiasts interested in integrating various tools and platforms seamlessly.

    • Problem Solved

    This workflow addresses the challenge of manually gathering data from the Perplexity API by automating the request process. It allows users to easily configure prompts and receive structured outputs, saving time and reducing the risk of errors in data collection.

    Workflow Steps

  • Step 1: The workflow is manually triggered when the user clicks ‘Test workflow’.
    - Step 2: The Set Params node assigns specific parameters such as system_prompt, user_prompt, and domains for the API request.
    - Step 3: The Perplexity Request node sends a POST request to the Perplexity API with the assigned parameters, including the model type and other settings.
    - Step 4: The response from the API is processed in the Clean Output node, which extracts the relevant content and citations from the response.
    - Step 5: The workflow includes Sticky Notes that provide important setup instructions and additional information about the model used in the API request.

    • Customization Guide

  • Users can modify the system_prompt and user_prompt values in the Set Params node to tailor the API requests to their specific needs.
    - The domains parameter can be adjusted to include different websites or sources relevant to the user's requirements.
    - Users can customize the Sticky Note content to provide specific instructions or information relevant to their workflow.
    - To change the API request settings (like temperature or top_p), users can edit the JSON body in the Perplexity Request node.
