clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
projectEnvironment: "production",
})
const result = await pd.actions.run({
id: "google_calendar-update-event-instance",
externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
configuredProps: {
google_calendar: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
calendarId: "Calendar",
