Gmail Overview#

By connecting your personal Gmail account to Pipedream, you'll be able to incorporate email into whatever you're building with any of the thousands of apps that are available on Pipedream.

Trigger Code#

import gmail from "../../gmail.app.mjs";
import common from "../common/polling-messages.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "gmail-new-email-matching-search",
  name: "New Email Matching Search",
  description: "Emit new event when an email matching the search criteria is received. This source is capped at 100 max new messages per run.",
  version: "0.0.5",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
    gmail,
    q: {
      propDefinition: [
        gmail,
        "q",
      ],
    },
    labels: {
      propDefinition: [
        gmail,
        "label",
      ],
      type: "string[]",
      label: "Labels",
      optional: true,
    },
  },
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getLabels() {
      return this.labels;
    },
    generateMeta(message) {
      const selectedHeader = message.payload.headers.find(({ name }) => name === "Subject");
      const subject = selectedHeader?.value || "No subject";
      return {
        id: message.id,
        summary: `New email: ${subject}`,
        ts: +message.internalDate,
      };
    },
  },
};

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
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Gmail	`gmail`	`app`	This component uses the Gmail app.
Search Query	`q`	`string`	Apply a search filter using Gmail's standard search operators
Labels	`labels`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

Gmail uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Gmail account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Gmail and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Gmail API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

emailprofileopenidhttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.labelshttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.sendhttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.modifyhttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.composehttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.settings.basic

About Gmail#

Gmail offers private and secure email by Google at no cost, for business and consumer accounts.

MySQL Overview#

The MySQL application on Pipedream enables direct interaction with your MySQL databases, allowing you to perform CRUD operations—create, read, update, delete—on your data with ease. You can leverage these capabilities to automate data synchronization, report generation, and event-based triggers that kick off workflows in other apps. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can connect MySQL to hundreds of other services without managing infrastructure, crafting complex code, or handling authentication.

Action Code#

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

export default {
  key: "mysql-execute-raw-query",
  name: "Execute SQL Query",
  description: "Execute a custom MySQL query. See [our docs](https://pipedream.com/docs/databases/working-with-sql) to learn more about working with SQL in Pipedream.",
  type: "action",
  version: "2.0.1",
  props: {
    mysql,
    // eslint-disable-next-line pipedream/props-description
    sql: {
      type: "sql",
      auth: {
        app: "mysql",
      },
      label: "SQL Query",
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const args = this.mysql.executeQueryAdapter(this.sql);
    const data = await this.mysql.executeQuery(args);
    $.export("$summary", `Returned ${data.length} ${data.length === 1
      ? "row"
      : "rows"}`);
    return data;
  },
};

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
MySQL	`mysql`	`app`	This component uses the MySQL app.
SQL Query	`sql`	`sql`

Action Authentication#

MySQL uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your MySQL account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to MySQL 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 MySQL 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.

About MySQL#
