projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
projectEnvironment: "production",
})
const result = await pd.actions.run({
id: "activecampaign-create-or-update-contact",
externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
configuredProps: {
activecampaign: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
email: "Contact's email",
firstName: "Contact's first name",
},
})
