Fomo Overview#

The Fomo API enables real-time social proof by broadcasting customer interactions, like purchases or sign-ups, to site visitors, fostering a sense of urgency and trust. Leveraging this API on Pipedream, developers can create dynamic, event-driven workflows that respond to these social cues with automated actions like sending emails, updating CRM records, or triggering custom notifications.

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
Fomo	`fomo`	`app`	This component uses the Fomo app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`

Trigger Authentication#

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

To retrieve your Fomo API token,
* Navigate to your Fomo account and sign in
* Go to “Sites”
* Select a Site
* Go to “Settings” > “Auth Token”

About Fomo#

Fomo delivers social proof to create website conversion momentum. The Fomo app does this by enabling online experience that feels like a busy store. When a person converts -- whether buying a new jacket, signing up for a retreat, or anything else -- Fomo shows this activity off to other visitors to drive action.

Shopify Overview#

The Shopify Admin REST & GraphQL API unleashes a myriad of possibilities to automate and enhance online store operations. It provides programmatic access to Shopify functionalities, allowing users to manage products, customers, orders, and more. Leveraging the Shopify Admin API within Pipedream, developers can create custom workflows that automate repetitive tasks, sync data across platforms, and respond dynamically to events in Shopify.

This integration can be used as a custom app on your store, or for automating actions on behalf of merchants through your Shopify app.
