IMPLEMENTATION

Deploy this event source

Connect the user's Discord Bot account, configure the source, and choose the webhook where your backend receives events.

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const deployed = await pd.triggers.deploy({
  id: "discord_bot-new-message-in-channel",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    discord_bot: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    guildId: "Guild",
    channels: ["Channels"],
  },
  webhookUrl: "https://example.com/webhooks/discord-bot",
})

console.log(deployed.id)

MCP exposes on-demand actions. Event sources are deployed through the Connect SDK or API because they continue listening after the initial request.

01

Connect

Your user authorizes Discord Bot through Pipedream managed auth.

02

Deploy

Your backend deploys this source with that user's own configuration.

03

Webhook delivery

Every event is sent to the HTTP endpoint you choose when you deploy the source — after each poll.

OR

On-demand retrieval

No webhook required. Your app or agent can fetch recent events from the trigger events API.
