Example Use Cases

  • Automated Project Creation: Upon closing deals in a CRM like Salesforce, trigger a workflow to create a new project in Basecamp with predefined to-do lists and document templates, ensuring that project kickoff is standardized and immediate.

  • Task Tracking and Notifications: Connect the Basecamp API to a time tracking tool like Toggl. Whenever a task is marked as completed in Basecamp, log the time automatically in Toggl and send a Slack notification to the team, keeping everyone informed and aligned.

  • Daily Digest Email: Compile a daily digest of updates across all Basecamp projects, like new messages, to-dos, or documents added, and send this summary via email using a service like SendGrid. This keeps stakeholders informed without them needing to manually check Basecamp for progress.

Authentication

Name Slug: basecamp

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

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

OAuth Request Configurations:
  1. authorization
    GEThttps://launchpad.37signals.com/authorization/new?client_id={{oauth.client_id}}&redirect_uri={{oauth.redirect_uri}}&state={{oauth.state}}&response_type=code&scope={{oauth.space_separated_scopes}}&type=web_server
