Getting Started#

This integration creates a workflow with a Microsoft Azure SQL Database trigger and MySQL action. When you configure and deploy the workflow, it will run on Pipedream's servers 24x7 for free.

Select this integration
Configure the New Column trigger
1. Connect your Microsoft Azure SQL Database account
2. Configure timer
3. Select a Table
Configure the Create Row action
1. Connect your MySQL account
2. Select a Table
Deploy the workflow
Send a test event to validate your setup
Turn on the trigger

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.

Microsoft Azure SQL Database Overview#

The Microsoft Azure SQL Database API allows you to manage and interact with your SQL databases hosted on Azure directly from Pipedream. It provides a serverless way to run SQL queries, manage tables, and handle database management tasks. You can create, read, update, and delete database records, execute stored procedures, and perform a variety of other SQL operations. Leveraging this API on Pipedream enables you to automate workflows, respond to database events in real-time, and integrate with countless other apps and services.

Trigger Code#

import { v4 as uuidv4 } from "uuid";
import common from "../common/common.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "azure_sql-new-column",
  name: "New Column",
  description: "Triggers when a new column is added to a table.",
  type: "source",
  version: "0.0.6",
  dedupe: "unique",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
    table: {
      propDefinition: [
        common.props.app,
        "table",
      ],
    },
  },
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getCurrentColumns() {
      return this.db.get("currentColumns") || [];
    },
    setCurrentColumns(columns) {
      this.db.set("currentColumns", columns);
    },
    generateMeta(resource) {
      return {
        id: uuidv4(),
        summary: `New Column Added: ${resource.COLUMN_NAME}`,
        ts: Date.now(),
      };
    },
    async listResults() {
      const {
        app,
        table,
        getCurrentColumns,
      } = this;

      const columns = getCurrentColumns();
      const { recordset } = await app.listNewColumns({
        table,
        columns,
      });

      const newColumns = recordset.map(({ COLUMN_NAME: column }) => column);

      this.processResources(recordset);
      this.setCurrentColumns(newColumns.concat(columns));
    },
  },
};

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
Microsoft Azure SQL Database	`app`	`app`	This component uses the Microsoft Azure SQL Database app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Table	`table`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

Before you connect to your Microsoft Azure SQL database from Pipedream, please make sure your database is either:

Accessible from the public internet (You may need to add a firewall rule on 0.0.0.0/0 on port 1433), or
Accessible from a static IP that you've configured from a VPC in Pipedream, and enabled the workflow to connect through that VPC

MySQL Overview#

The MySQL application on Pipedream enables direct interaction with your MySQL databases, allowing you to perform CRUD operations—create, read, update, delete—on your data with ease. You can leverage these capabilities to automate data synchronization, report generation, and event-based triggers that kick off workflows in other apps. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can connect MySQL to hundreds of other services without managing infrastructure, crafting complex code, or handling authentication.

Action Code#

import mysql from "../../mysql.app.mjs";
import utils from "../common/utils.mjs";

export default {
  key: "mysql-create-row",
  name: "Create Row",
  description: "Adds a new row. [See the docs here](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/insert.html)",
  type: "action",
  version: "2.0.5",
  props: {
    mysql,
    table: {
      description: "The table to add a row to",
      propDefinition: [
        mysql,
        "table",
      ],
      reloadProps: true,
    },
  },
  additionalProps() {
    return this.getColumnProps(this.table);
  },
  methods: utils,
  async run({ $ }) {
    const { table } = this;

    const {
      columns, values,
    } = await this.getColumnAndValueArrays(table);

    const result = await this.mysql.insertRow({
      table,
      columns,
      values,
    });

    $.export("$summary", `Successfully added ${result.affectedRows} row(s) to table ${table}`);

    return result;
  },
};

Action Configuration#

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

Label	Prop	Type	Description
MySQL	`mysql`	`app`	This component uses the MySQL app.
Table	`table`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Action Authentication#

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

Connecting to Restricted Databases

Either enable the shared static IP for this account below, or configure a VPC to deploy any workflow in your workspace to a private network with a dedicated static IP. Learn more in our docs.

SSL Setup

Configure SSL on your MySQL database by providing the CA (Certificate Authority), and choosing between Full Verification, Verify Certificate Authority (CA), or Skip Verification. Skipping verification is not recommended as this has serious security implications.
