Firebase Admin SDK Overview#

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.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/common.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "firebase_admin_sdk-new-doc-in-firestore-collection",
  name: "New Document in Firestore Collection",
  description: "Emit new event when a structured query returns new documents",
  version: "0.0.7",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
    query: {
      propDefinition: [

    },
  },
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    async processEvent() {
      const structuredQuery = JSON.parse(this.query);

      const queryResults = await this.firebase.runQuery(structuredQuery);

      for (const result of queryResults) {
        const meta = this.generateMeta(result);
        this.$emit(result, meta);
      }
    },
    generateMeta({ document }) {
      const {

        summary: name,
        ts: Date.parse(createTime),

  },
};

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
Firebase Admin SDK	`firebase`	`app`	This component uses the Firebase Admin SDK app.
Polling Interval	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	Pipedream will poll the API on this schedule
Database Region	`databaseRegion`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`{ "label": "us-central1", "value": "firebaseio.com" }{ "label": "europe-west1", "value": "europe-west1.firebasedatabase.app" }{ "label": "asia-southeast1", "value": "asia-southeast1.firebasedatabase.app" }`
Structured Query	`query`	`string`	Enter a structured query that returns new records from your target collection. Example: `{ "select": { "fields": [] }, "from": [ { "collectionId": "<YOUR COLLECTION>", "allDescendants": "true" } ] }`

Trigger Authentication#

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

Enable the Cloud Firestore API on your Firebase account, and make sure you've created at least one collection in the database.
Follow these instructions to generate a private key tied to your Firebase service account. This will generate a JSON file that contains the project ID, private key, and client email that you should paste below.
When entering the private key, please add the full string included in the JSON file, from -----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY----- to -----END PRIVATE KEY-----, with all newline characters included.

Retriever Overview#

The Retriever API is designed for automating contact information retrieval, enriching your CRM data, or building lead generation tools. By integrating it with Pipedream, you can strategically extract valuable data and automate workflows for marketing, sales, or customer support. Pipedream’s serverless platform enables you to connect Retriever with hundreds of other apps, triggering actions based on new data, or updating systems in real-time.
