Basin Overview#

The Basin API provides a powerful platform for automating form submissions, gathering feedback, and conducting surveys with ease. By leveraging the Pipedream's serverless execution model, you can trigger workflows in response to new form submissions, process and analyze the data, and take action in countless other apps. Whether you're routing form data to a CRM, generating support tickets, or synthesizing customer insights, Basin on Pipedream simplifies these tasks with its event-driven architecture and seamless integrations.

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
Basin	`basin`	`app`	This component uses the Basin app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`

Trigger Authentication#

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

Go to the Dashboard for your form and then select the 'Integrations' tab. Each form has it's own API key.

Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Sinch API.

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