Pipedream

Gate AI-triggered Pipedream workflow steps behind a human approval step. Use a Node.js code step to call Cheqpoint and branch on the decision before executing sensitive actions.

Prerequisites

Pipedream account.
Cheqpoint Connection Key (stored as an environment variable in Pipedream).

Steps

In your Pipedream workflow, add a Node.js Code step immediately before any sensitive action step.
Use axios or $http to POST to https://cheqpoint.co/api/webhooks/inbound.
Set the x-api-key header using process.env.CHEQPOINT_CONNECTION_KEY.
Map upstream step data to the Cheqpoint action, summary, and details fields.
Add a Filter step after the code step that checks steps.cheqpoint.$return_value.status === "approved".
The Filter will halt the workflow if not approved; otherwise execution continues to the action step.

Sample request payload

json

{
  "action": "push_to_production_db",
  "summary": "Pipedream workflow pushing AI-generated content to production database",
  "details": {
    "table": "product_descriptions",
    "record_count": 85,
    "source_model": "gpt-4o",
    "review_pass_rate": 0.94
  },
  "justification": "Batch content generation passed automated quality checks."
}

Sample Cheqpoint response

json

{
  "status": "approved",
  "modifiedDetails": null,
  "decisionNote": "Spot-checked 10 records. Looks good. Proceed."
}

Node.js code step

javascript

import axios from "axios";

export default defineComponent({
  async run({ steps, $ }) {
    const response = await axios.post(
      "https://cheqpoint.co/api/webhooks/inbound",
      {
        action: "push_to_production_db",
        summary: "Pipedream workflow pushing AI-generated content to production database",
        details: {
          table: "product_descriptions",
          record_count: steps.generate.$return_value.count,
          source_model: "gpt-4o",
        },
        justification: "Batch content generation passed automated quality checks.",
      },
      {
        headers: {
          "x-api-key": process.env.CHEQPOINT_CONNECTION_KEY,
          "Content-Type": "application/json",
        },
      }
    );

    // Export so the Filter step can read it
    $.export("status", response.data.status);
    $.export("approvalId", response.data.approvalId);
    return response.data;
  },
});

Notes

You have full control over what data is passed into the details object to provide human reviewers with sufficient context.

Tips

Start by routing only high-risk or high-value actions to minimize friction while maintaining oversight.
