Overview#
SkyCiv API offers engineering analysis and design capabilities within the cloud, allowing structural calculations and manipulations over the web. By integrating SkyCiv with Pipedream, users can automate complex engineering workflows, connect with other apps for enhanced data handling, and trigger actions based on structural analysis results. This seamless integration facilitates real-time decision-making and can significantly streamline operations in construction, architecture, and engineering projects.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({

Example Use Cases#
Automated Load Analysis Report Generation: Trigger a SkyCiv analysis for a new project design uploaded to Google Drive. Once the analysis is complete, use the results to generate a report with Google Docs, and email it directly to stakeholders using Gmail. This workflow ensures that project updates and critical analyses are communicated efficiently and without manual intervention.
Project Status Updates via Slack: Configure a workflow where SkyCiv sends structural analysis updates to Slack. Whenever a structural analysis reaches a certain threshold or fails, a notification is pushed to a dedicated Slack channel, keeping the team informed and responsive to potential issues. This automation enhances project monitoring and team communication.
Real-time Material Cost Estimation: Integrate SkyCiv with a financial app like QuickBooks to automatically estimate and update the cost implications of various material choices based on the structural analysis results. Whenever a new analysis is run, update the budget in QuickBooks to reflect changes in material costs, helping maintain financial accuracy throughout the project lifecycle.
Authentication#
SkyCiv uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your SkyCiv account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to SkyCiv APIs in both code and no-code steps.
