Configure the New Created or Updated Event (Instant) trigger
1. Connect your Google Calendar account
2. Optional- Select one or more Calendars
3. Optional- Configure Emit only for new events
4. Configure Push notification renewal schedule
Configure the Insert Multiple Rows action
1. Connect your Snowflake account
2. Select a Database
3. Select a Schema
4. Select a Table Name
5. Select one or more Columns
6. Configure Row Values
Deploy the workflow
Send a test event to validate your setup
Turn on the trigger

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.

Google Calendar Overview#

The Google Calendar API lets you dip into the powerhouse of scheduling, allowing for the reading, creation, and manipulation of events and calendars directly from your applications. Through Pipedream, you can seamlessly integrate Google Calendar into a myriad of workflows, automating event management, syncing with other services, setting up custom reminders, or even collating data for reporting. The key here is to streamline your calendar-related processes, ensuring that your time management is as efficient and automated as possible.

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
Google Calendar	`googleCalendar`	`app`	This component uses the Google Calendar app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Calendars	`calendarIds`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Emit only for new events	`newOnly`	`boolean`	Emit new events only, and not updates to existing events (defaults to `false`)
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.
Push notification renewal schedule	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	The Google Calendar API requires occasional renewal of push notification subscriptions. This runs in the background, so you should not need to modify this schedule.

Trigger Authentication#

Google Calendar uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Google Calendar account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Google Calendar 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 Calendar API.

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

https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.eventshttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.readonlyhttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.settings.readonly

About Google Calendar#

With Google Calendar, you can quickly schedule meetings and events and get reminders about upcoming activities, so you always know what’s next.

Insert Multiple Rows on Snowflake

Description:Insert multiple rows into a table

Version:0.1.2

Key:snowflake-insert-multiple-rows

View on GitHub

Snowflake Overview#

Snowflake offers a cloud database and related tools to help developers create robust, secure, and scalable data warehouses. See Snowflake's Key Concepts & Architecture.

Getting Started

1. Create a user, role and warehouse in Snowflake

Snowflake recommends you create a new user, role, and warehouse when you integrate a third-party tool like Pipedream. This way, you can control permissions via the user / role, and separate Pipedream compute and costs with the warehouse. You can do this directly in the Snowflake UI.

We recommend you create a read-only account if you only need to query Snowflake. If you need to insert data into Snowflake, add permissions on the appropriate objects after you create your user.

2. Enter those details in Pipedream

Visit https://pipedream.com/accounts. Click the button to Connect an App. Enter the required Snowflake account data.

You'll only need to connect your account once in Pipedream. You can connect this account to multiple workflows to run queries against Snowflake, insert data, and more.

3. Build your first workflow

Visit https://pipedream.com/new to build your first workflow. Pipedream workflows let you connect Snowflake with 1,000+ other apps. You can trigger workflows on Snowflake queries, sending results to Slack, Google Sheets, or any app that exposes an API. Or you can accept data from another app, transform it with Python, Node.js, Go or Bash code, and insert it into Snowflake.

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
Snowflake	`snowflake`	`app`	This component uses the Snowflake app.
Database	`database`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Schema	`schema`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Table Name	`tableName`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Columns	`columns`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Row Values	`values`	`string`	Provide an array of arrays. Each nested array should represent a row, with each element of the nested array representing a value (e.g., passing `[["Foo",1,2],["Bar",3,4]]` will insert two rows of data with three columns each). The most common pattern is to reference an array of arrays exported by a previous step (e.g., `{{steps.foo.$return_value}}`). You may also enter or construct a string that will `JSON.parse()` to an array of arrays.

Action Authentication#

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

We recommend you create a read-only account if you only need to query Snowflake. If you need to insert data into Snowflake, add permissions on the appropriate objects after you create your user.
