Job Run Completed (Instant) on dbt Cloud

Description:Emit new event when a job run has completed.

Version:0.0.2

Key:dbt-job-run-completed

View on GitHub

dbt Cloud Overview#

The dbt Cloud API allows users to initiate jobs, check on their status, and interact with dbt Cloud programmatically. On Pipedream, you can harness this functionality to automate workflows, such as triggering dbt runs, monitoring your data transformation jobs, and integrating dbt Cloud with other data services. By leveraging Pipedream's serverless platform, you can create custom workflows that act on dbt Cloud events or use the dbt Cloud API to manage your data transformation processes seamlessly.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/common.mjs";
import sampleEmit from "./test-event.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "dbt-job-run-completed",
  name: "Job Run Completed (Instant)",
  description: "Emit new event when a job run has completed.",
  version: "0.0.2",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getEventTypes() {
      return [
        "job.run.completed",
      ];
    },
    generateMeta(body) {
      return {
        id: body.eventId,
        summary: `Job "${body.data.jobName}"" completed`,
        ts: Date.parse(body.data.runFinishedAt),
      };
    },
  },
  sampleEmit,
};

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
dbt Cloud	`dbt`	`app`	This component uses the dbt Cloud app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.interface.http` to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the `run()` method of the component.
Account	`accountId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

About dbt Cloud#

dbt is an intuitive, collaborative platform that lets you reliably transform data using SQL and Python code.

Google Analytics Overview#

The Google Analytics API unlocks the power of your analytics data, enabling automated access to custom reports, real-time statistics, and user behavior analysis. With it, you can extract actionable insights, push data to other platforms, and tailor your business strategy with precision. Leveraging Pipedream's serverless platform, these capabilities can be seamlessly integrated into workflows that trigger actions in other apps, send alerts, or even feed data warehouses for deeper analysis.

Action Authentication#

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

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