Run it without writing any code
Every step above is a visual node in the Requex workflow builder. Clone this template, fill in your own credentials where a step needs them, and it runs in the cloud — no server, no cron box, no npm install. Webhook-triggered workflows get an always-on URL; scheduled ones run on your cron expression.
