We’ve added a new Web Service module to Pipes that allows developers to power their own modules and extend the functionality Pipes offers.
In the Pipes Editor, the new Web Service module is listed under Operators:
- The Web Service module POSTs the items in a pipe in JSON format to an external web service. This allows developers to extend the functionality Pipes offers to do whatever they need. The original items are replaced by the web services JSON or RSS response. Here’s an example.

Note: We’ve documented the source code for the web service that we call in the example pipe.
