Research direction
This issue requests a new Pipedream action to retrieve DPD parcel status using the GET /parcel/status/{number} endpoint from the DPD Connect API (docs at https://api.dpdconnect.nl/swagger/index.html#/default/status). The implementation should follow the standard Pipedream action structure, defining props for the parcel number and authentication (likely an API key). Look at existing actions in the Pipedream repository (e.g., in components/dpd/ or similar) for patterns. The action should handle the HTTP request, parse the response, and expose relevant fields. No assignee or linked PR exists, so this appears available for a first time contributor. The 10 comments likely contain clarifications; read them to confirm any extra requirements or preferences from maintainers.
