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.

Hive Overview#

The Hive API allows for robust interaction with Hive's project and team management tools. By leveraging the Hive API within Pipedream, you can automate tasks, sync data across platforms, and create custom workflows that enhance productivity. For instance, you could automate project creation, update task statuses, or sync information to other business tools. Pipedream's serverless platform simplifies integration, enabling you to focus on crafting workflows without worrying about infrastructure.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/base.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "hive-new-action-created",
  name: "New Action Created",
  version: "0.0.1",
  description: "Emit new event when a new action is created.",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getFunction(hive) {
      return hive.listActions;
    },
    getSummary(actionId) {
      return `A new action with id: "${actionId}" was created!`;
    },
    getField() {
      return "createdAt";
    },
  },
};

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
Hive	`hive`	`app`	This component uses the Hive app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Polling interval	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	Pipedream will poll the Hive on this schedule
Workspace Id	`workspaceId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

You can get your API Key, User ID, and Workspace ID in the profile menu on the top right, then Edit Profile > API Info.

Asana Overview#

The Asana API taps into the feature-rich project management platform, allowing you to automate tasks, sync data across apps, and enhance team collaboration. With the Asana API on Pipedream, you can create tasks, update project timelines, and trigger workflows from events within Asana—like new tasks or comments—streamlining your project management processes. Pipedream’s serverless platform empowers you to build complex workflows with minimal overhead, integrating Asana with numerous other services to maximize productivity and reduce manual workload.
