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.

Trigger#

New Message on AMQP

Description:Emit new event for each new message in an [AMQP 1.0](https://www.amqp.org/sites/amqp.org/files/amqp.pdf) queue. [See the library example here](https://github.com/amqp/rhea-promise#receiving-a-message).

AMQP Overview#

AMQP (Advanced Message Queuing Protocol) is a flexible protocol designed for high-performance messaging. Integrating the AMQP API within Pipedream workflows allows for robust messaging capabilities between various systems and services. You can use it to queue tasks, run asynchronous job processing, and facilitate communication between different parts of your application or different applications altogether. AMQP's reliability and standardization make it a go-to choice for enterprise-level messaging patterns.

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
AMQP	`amqp`	`app`	This component uses the AMQP app.
Timer	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	The timer to use to schedule the next poll.
Receiver Name	`receiverName`	`string`	The name of the receiver. e.g. (`my-receiver`)
Queue Name	`queueName`	`string`	The name of the queue to send the message to.

Trigger Authentication#

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

Setting up AMQP requires their users enter their AMQP settings host, post, username, and password in order to connect. For more info, refer to AMQP’s documentation

Discord Overview#

The Discord API interacts seamlessly with Pipedream, empowering you to craft customized automations and workflows for your Discord server. With this powerful integration, you can automate tasks like message posting, user management, and notifications, based on a myriad of triggers and actions from different apps. These automations can enhance the Discord experience for community moderators and members, by synchronizing with external tools, organizing community engagement, and streamlining notifications.

Action Authentication#

Discord uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Discord account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Discord and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Discord API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
