Details#

This integration uses pre-built, source-available components from Pipedream's GitHub repo. These components are developed by Pipedream and the community, and verified and maintained by Pipedream.

To contribute an update to an existing component or create a new component, create a PR on GitHub. If you're new to Pipedream component development, you can start with quickstarts for trigger span and action development, and then review the component API reference.

Adalo Overview#

The Adalo API allows for the creation and manipulation of database records in your Adalo apps. Automating workflows with Pipedream can enhance your Adalo app's functionality, trigger custom actions based on app events, sync data across platforms, or notify users and team members about important updates. By leveraging Pipedream's ability to connect with hundreds of other apps, you can create sophisticated, multi-step workflows that respond dynamically to your Adalo app's data and events.

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Adalo	`adalo`	`app`	This component uses the Adalo app.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Collection ID	`collectionId`	`string`	The ID the collection

Trigger Authentication#

Adalo uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Adalo account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Adalo APIs in both code and no-code steps.

You can access your API key from the left nav > settings gear > app access > Generate API Key. See docs.

Data Stores Overview#

Data Stores are a key-value store that allow you to persist state and share data across workflows. You can perform CRUD operations, enabling dynamic data management within your serverless architecture. Use it to save results from API calls, user inputs, or interim data; then read, update, or enrich this data in subsequent steps or workflows. Data Stores simplify stateful logic and cross-workflow communication, making them ideal for tracking process statuses, aggregating metrics, or serving as a simple configuration store.
