The Firebase Admin SDK API provides powerful backend functionality for Firebase apps. It allows you to interact with Firebase services like Firestore, Firebase Realtime Database, Firebase Storage, and Firebase Authentication directly from a server. With Pipedream, you can harness this API to automate complex workflows, respond to Firebase events in real-time, and integrate with countless other services.
import admin from "firebase-admin"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
firebase_admin_sdk: {
type: "app",
app: "firebase_admin_sdk",
},
},
async run({ steps, $ }) {
// Enter values for the following parameters below this code step,
// These get passed to the initializeApp method below.
const {
projectId,
clientEmail,
privateKey,
region = "firebaseio.com",
} = this.firebase_admin_sdk.$auth
// Before passing the privateKey to the initializeApp constructor,
// we have to replace newline characters with literal newlines
const formattedPrivateKey = privateKey.replace(/\\n/g, "\n")
// See https://firebase.google.com/docs/reference/admin/node/admin.credential.html#cert
if (!admin.apps.length) {
admin.initializeApp({
credential: admin.credential.cert({
projectId,
clientEmail,
privateKey: formattedPrivateKey,
}),
databaseURL: `https://${projectId}-default-rtdb.${region}/`,
})
}
},
})
The Amazon Alexa API connects your Pipedream workflows to Alexa's smart capabilities, enabling you to build voice-driven interactions and extend the functionality of Alexa Skills. Interact with users through their Alexa devices, manage and update Skills, or harness Alexa's smart home control. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can create complex workflows that respond to Alexa events, trigger actions in other services, or process voice commands for custom outcomes.
