Details#

This integration uses pre-built, source-available components from Pipedream's GitHub repo. These components are developed by Pipedream and the community, and verified and maintained by Pipedream.

To contribute an update to an existing component or create a new component, create a PR on GitHub. If you're new to Pipedream component development, you can start with quickstarts for trigger span and action development, and then review the component API reference.

Formbricks Overview#

Formbricks is a flexible tool for building forms that can integrate seamlessly into any website. The API allows for rich interactions with the forms you create, enabling you to automate the gathering and processing of data. By plugging the Formbricks API into Pipedream, you can harness serverless workflows to react to form submissions in real-time, store responses, or trigger a multitude of actions across different platforms. Think of it as empowering your forms to communicate and act on the data without manual intervention.

Trigger Code#

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
Formbricks	`formbricks`	`app`	This component uses the Formbricks app.
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.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Survey IDs	`surveyIds`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

PostgreSQL Overview#

On Pipedream, you can leverage the PostgreSQL app to create workflows that automate database operations, synchronize data across platforms, and react to database events in real-time. Think handling new row entries, updating records from webhooks, or even compiling reports on a set schedule. Pipedream's serverless platform provides a powerful way to connect PostgreSQL with a variety of apps, enabling you to create tailored automation that fits your specific needs.

Action Code#

import postgresql from "../../postgresql.app.mjs";

export default {
  name: "Insert Row",
  key: "postgresql-insert-row",
  description: "Adds a new row. [See the documentation](https://node-postgres.com/features/queries)",

      table,
      rowValues,
    } = this;
    const columns = Object.keys(rowValues);
    const values = Object.values(rowValues);
    try {
      const res = await this.postgresql.insertRow(
        schema,
        table,
        columns,
        values,
      );
      $.export("$summary", "New row inserted");
      return res;
    } catch (error) {
      let errorMsg = "New row not inserted due to an error. ";
      errorMsg += `${error}`.includes("SSL verification failed")
        ? "This could be because SSL verification failed. To resolve this, reconnect your account and set SSL Verification Mode: Skip Verification, and try again."
        : `${error}`;
      throw new Error(errorMsg);
    }
  },
};

Action Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
PostgreSQL	`postgresql`	`app`	This component uses the PostgreSQL app.
Schema	`schema`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Table	`table`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Row Values	`rowValues`	`object`	Enter the column names and respective values as key/value pairs, or with structured mode off as `{{{columnName:"columnValue"}}}`

Action Authentication#

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

Connecting to Restricted Databases

Either enable the shared static IP for this account below, or configure a VPC to deploy any workflow in your workspace to a private network with a dedicated static IP. Learn more in our docs.

SSL Setup

Configure SSL on your PostgreSQL database by providing the CA (Certificate Authority), and choosing between Full Verification, Verify Certificate Authority (CA), or Skip Verification. Skipping verification is not recommended as this has serious security implications.
