AWS
Amazon Web Services (AWS) offers reliable, scalable, and inexpensive cloud computing services.
Integrate the AWS API with the Slack API
Setup the AWS API trigger to run a workflow which integrates with the Slack API. Pipedream's integration platform allows you to integrate AWS and Slack remarkably fast. Free for developers.
Popular Ways to Connect AWS with Slack#
Popular AWS and Slack Triggers#
Creates a Step Function State Machine to publish a message to an SNS topic at a specific timestamp. The SNS topic delivers the message to this Pipedream source, and the source emits it as a new event.
Emit new event when a new message is posted to one or more channels
Creates an SNS topic in your AWS account. Messages published to this topic are emitted from the Pipedream source.
The source subscribes to all emails delivered to a specific domain configured in AWS SES. When an email is sent to any address at the domain, this event source emits that email as a formatted event. These events can trigger a Pipedream workflow and can be consumed via SSE or REST API.
Popular AWS and Slack Actions#
Send a message to a public channel and customize the name and avatar of the bot that posts the message. See postMessage or scheduleMessage docs here
Send a message to a private channel and customize the name and avatar of the bot that posts the message. See postMessage or scheduleMessage docs here
Send a direct message to a single user. See postMessage or scheduleMessage docs here
Overview of AWS#
The AWS API unlocks endless possibilities for automation with Pipedream. With this powerful combo, you can manage your AWS services and resources, automate deployment workflows, process data, and react to events across your AWS infrastructure. Pipedream offers a serverless platform for creating workflows triggered by various events that can execute AWS SDK functions, making it an efficient tool to integrate, automate, and orchestrate tasks across AWS services and other apps.
Connect AWS#
import AWS from 'aws-sdk'
export default defineComponent({
props: {
aws: {
type: "app",
app: "aws",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
const { accessKeyId, secretAccessKey } = this.aws.$auth
/* Now, pass the accessKeyId and secretAccessKey to the constructor for your desired service. For example:
const dynamodb = new AWS.DynamoDB({
accessKeyId,
secretAccessKey,
region: 'us-east-1',
})
*/
},
})Overview of Slack#
The Pipedream Slack app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Slack API. When you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your workspace, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Slack actions, or write your own code against the Slack API.
The Pipedream Slack app is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.
- Automate posting updates to your team channels
- Create a bot to answer common questions
- Integrate with your existing tools and services
- And much more!
Connect Slack#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
slack: {
type: "app",
app: "slack",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://slack.com/api/users.profile.get`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.slack.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})
