IMPLEMENTATION

Call this tool

Connect a user's AWS account once, then configure and run EventBridge - Send Event to Event Bus from your backend or agent.

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  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: "aws-eventbridge-send-event",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    aws: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    region: "AWS Region",
    eventBusName: "Event Bus Name",
  },
})

console.log(result)

SCHEMA

Inputs

Pipedream supplies the connected account. Your application provides the operation-specific values below. Dynamic inputs are resolved against that user's account.

EventBridge - Send Event to Event Bus inputs
Property Type Description
region AWS Region string
Region tied to your EventBridge event bus, e.g. us-east-1 or us-west-2
Required Dynamic
eventBusName Event Bus Name string
The name of the EventBridge event bus
Required Dynamic
eventData Event data object
A JSON object that will be sent as an event
Required
detailType Detail Type string
Free-form string, with a maximum of 128 characters, used to decide what fields to expect in the event detail. Detail, DetailType, and Source are required for EventBridge to successfully send an event to an event bus. If you include event entries in a request that does not include each of those properties, EventBridge fails that entry. If you submit a request in which none of the entries have each of these properties, EventBridge fails the entire request.
Optional
