Some things you can build using the Google API include:
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
google: {
type: "app",
app: "google",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/userinfo`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.google.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})
Google uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Google account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Google and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Google API.
Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
email
profile
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/spreadsheets
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/spreadsheets.readonly
