Overview#

The CiviCRM API allows interaction with the CiviCRM ecosystem, enabling you to manage contacts, contributions, events, memberships, and more directly via Pipedream. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can create workflows that automate tasks, sync data across apps, and respond to webhooks. Using Pipedream, you can harness the CiviCRM API to craft custom integrations that trigger actions within CiviCRM or sync data with other tools, without managing infrastructure.

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    civicrm: {
      type: "app",
      app: "civicrm",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    const base64 = Buffer.from(this.civicrm.$auth.username+":"+this.civicrm.$auth.password).toString('base64');
    return await axios($, {
      method: "POST",
      url: `https://${this.civicrm.$auth.url}/civicrm/ajax/api4/Contact/get`,
      headers: {
        "X-Civi-Auth": `Basic ${base64}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Example Use Cases#

Sync CiviCRM Contacts to a Google Sheet
Automatically add new contacts from CiviCRM to a Google Sheet. This workflow can help maintain backup lists or prepare mailing lists for campaigns. Each new contact in CiviCRM could trigger a workflow that appends their information to a specific Google Sheet.
Send Welcome Emails via SendGrid
Craft a workflow that triggers when a new member is added to CiviCRM. It can send personalized welcome emails through SendGrid, ensuring new members receive timely, professional communication without manual intervention.
Create Slack Notifications for New Donations
Set up a Pipedream workflow that listens for new contributions in CiviCRM. Whenever a new donation is recorded, it can trigger a notification in a designated Slack channel, keeping your team instantly informed about fundraising progress.

Authentication#

Name Slug: civicrm

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