Prerender Buddy for Activepieces
Read website evidence and prepare, review and publish articles from your flows.
Install a custom piece
This standalone package can be installed on an Activepieces deployment that permits custom pieces. Build the archive with npm run pack:piece; upload the resulting .tgz in your platform's custom-piece management. Custom-piece installation requires the platform's supported edition and admin permission. Public cloud catalog availability requires the community contribution to be merged and released by Activepieces.
Minimum tested Activepieces release: 0.82.0. The archive includes the compiled engine entry at src/index.js, its MIT licence and this guide.
Add a Prerender Buddy action, connect your Developer API key and choose the website. Twelve actions cover evidence and articles. Use a schedule trigger for reporting and a delay before polling background tasks.
Connect your workspace
Developer API access is included in Starter, Growth and Pro. In PB, open your avatar menu → Developer API keys and create a dedicated key. Include sites for the website selector and only the scopes your workflow needs:
| Scope | Actions |
| --- | --- |
| health | Recorded website health |
| visibility | Recorded brand appearances and citations |
| activity | Recorded crawler visits |
| content | Ideas, task status and articles |
| content:write | Proposal preparation and confirmed draft generation |
| content:publish | Reviewed approval, delivery and scheduling |
Store the key in the platform credential store. Never put it in a workflow export. Website selection is limited to the key's workspace. The actions use PB's production API; evidence reads do not start fresh AI collections.
Article workflow
List ideas → prepare a sourced proposal → poll its task → review the proposal and allowance → confirm generation → poll → read and review the article → approve its exact review hash → send a CMS draft, explicitly publish, or schedule publication.
All confirmation controls start off. Place a human approval step before generation and live publication. A prefilled true boolean does not itself represent a person reviewing the content. Generate uses one shared workspace article allowance. Retain requestId for proposal retries and taskId for generation retries; retain reviewHash only for the exact version reviewed. Follow pollAfterSeconds while processing.
To cancel a publication, run Schedule Approved Article with a blank publication time. A revoked API key stops publications scheduled with that key. Git release merges a content pull request; your website host still needs to deploy it.
