AWeber Overview#

AWeber's API provides a suite of tools to automate email marketing efforts, enabling developers to manage subscribers, send emails, and track results programmatically. With the AWeber API on Pipedream, you can create custom workflows that react to various triggers and connect with other services to streamline your email campaigns, analyze performance, and enhance subscriber engagement.

Trigger Code#

import constants from "../../common/constants.mjs";
import common from "../common.mjs";
import sampleEmit from "./test-event.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "aweber-subscriber-added",
  name: "Subscriber Added",
  description: "Emit new event when a subscriber in a list is added. [See the docs here](https://api.aweber.com/#tag/Subscribers/paths/~1accounts~1{accountId}~1lists~1{listId}~1subscribers/get)",
  type: "source",
  version: "0.0.5",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getResourceFn() {
      return this.aweberApp.getSubscribersForAccount;
    },
    getResourceFnArgs(args) {
      return {
        ...args,
        accountId: this.accountId,
        params: {
          [constants.PAGINATION.OPTIONS_PROP]: "findSubscribers",
        },
      };
    },
    getSummary(resource) {
      return `Subscriber added ${resource.email}`;
    },
  },
  sampleEmit,
};

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
AWeber	`aweberApp`	`app`	This component uses the AWeber app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Polling schedule	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	How often to poll the AWeber API
Account ID	`accountId`	`integer`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

account.readlist.readlist.writesubscriber.readsubscriber.writesubscriber.read-extendedemail.reademail.write
