clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
projectEnvironment: "production",
})
const result = await pd.actions.run({
id: "instapaper-add-url",
externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
configuredProps: {
instapaper: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
url: "URL",

},
})

await mcp.connect(transport)
const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()
// listTools() hands your model this tool's input schema, so it can
// fill the arguments itself:

arguments: {
url: "URL",
title: "Title",

Inputs
Pipedream supplies the connected account. Your application provides the operation-specific values below. Dynamic inputs are resolved against that user's account.
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
url URL | string | The URL to add Required |
title Title | string | Optional, plain text, no HTML, UTF-8. If omitted or empty, Instapaper will crawl the URL to detect a title. Optional |
selection Selection | string | Optional, plain text, no HTML, UTF-8. Will show up as the description under an item in the interface. Some clients use this to describe where it came from, such as the text of the source Twitter post when sending a link from a Twitter client. Optional |
