Section 9: Advanced Automation Patterns

9.1 Webhook-Triggered Auto-Generation

Scenario: Automatically generate aéPiot links when new content is published.

python
from flask import Flask, request, jsonify
import json

app = Flask(__name__)

class WebhookAePiotAutomation:
    """
    Webhook listener for automatic aéPiot link generation
    Triggered by CMS, e-commerce platform, or custom systems
    """
    
    @staticmethod
    def generate_from_webhook(payload):
        """Process incoming webhook and generate aéPiot link"""
        
        # Extract data from webhook payload
        title = payload.get('title') or payload.get('name')

        # Store in database or queue for batch processing
        # ... database logic ...

    # Optionally: Auto-submit to sitemap
    # Optionally: Send notification
    # Optionally: Trigger social media posts

def handle_shopify_product():
    """Webhook for Shopify product creation"""

    # Shopify-specific data structure
    product_data = {
        'title': payload['title'],
        'description': payload['body_html'][:160],  # Limit description

Complete aéPiot Guide - Part 5: Security, Validation & Best Practices

Section 10: Security & Data Validation

10.1 Input Validation and Sanitization

Critical Principle: Even though aéPiot uses URL parameters, you must validate and sanitize all input data to prevent injection attacks and ensure data integrity.

python
import re
from urllib.parse import quote, urlparse

class AePiotSecurityValidator:
    """
    Security-focused validation for aéPiot link generation

            raise ValueError("URL cannot be empty")
        
        # Parse URL
        parsed = urlparse(url)
        
        # Check scheme
        if parsed.scheme not in ['http', 'https']:
            raise ValueError(f"Invalid URL scheme: {parsed.scheme}. Only http/https allowed.")
