The Peliqan low-code Python environment provides single line functions to interact with APIs from connected SaaS applications. These functions abstract away the complexities of working with a specific API (authentication, error handling etc).

These writeback functions (for example “CRM Update contact” or “Accounting Create Invoice”) are the fundamentals for data syncs and Reverse ETL.

Here’s an example to write a contact to Hubspot (CRM):

hubspot_api.add('contact', {"email": "[email protected]", "name": "John Doe"})

And here’s an example to send a message to Slack:

slack_api.add('message', channel = 'QA', text = 'Data quality alert')

Use cases: data activation

The Peliqan SaaS API wrapper functions can be used for various use cases. We refer to these use cases as “Data Activation”. Here are a few examples:

• Send alerts to Slack

• Send an email with a report attached

• Write data to a Google Sheet

• Add a contact to a CRM such as Hubspot or Salesforce

• Create an invoice in an accounting system

• Import a CSV file

• Writebacks from the data warehouse to SaaS applications

• Data syncs (Reverse ETL, custom data pipelines, custom data exports etc.). More info:
