MeisterTask Overview#

MeisterTask's API enables automation of task management processes, offering a programmatic way to interact with your tasks and projects. By leveraging the API with Pipedream, you can create powerful, serverless workflows that react to events in MeisterTask, manipulate tasks and projects, or synchronize data across multiple platforms. It's a robust tool for enhancing productivity and streamlining project collaboration.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,

  },
};

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
MeisterTask	`meistertask`	`app`	This component uses the MeisterTask app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Project	`projectId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Section	`sectionId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Task	`taskId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

MeisterTask uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your MeisterTask account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into MeisterTask and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any MeisterTask API.

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

MySQL Overview#

The MySQL application on Pipedream enables direct interaction with your MySQL databases, allowing you to perform CRUD operations—create, read, update, delete—on your data with ease. You can leverage these capabilities to automate data synchronization, report generation, and event-based triggers that kick off workflows in other apps. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can connect MySQL to hundreds of other services without managing infrastructure, crafting complex code, or handling authentication.

Action Code#

import mysql from "../../mysql.app.mjs";
import utils from "../common/utils.mjs";

export default {
  key: "mysql-create-row",
  name: "Create Row",
  description: "Adds a new row. [See the docs here](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/insert.html)",
  type: "action",
  version: "2.0.5",
  props: {
    mysql,
    table: {
      description: "The table to add a row to",
      propDefinition: [
        mysql,
        "table",
      ],
      reloadProps: true,
    },
  },
  additionalProps() {
    return this.getColumnProps(this.table);
  },
  methods: utils,
  async run({ $ }) {
    const { table } = this;

    const {
      columns, values,
    } = await this.getColumnAndValueArrays(table);

    const result = await this.mysql.insertRow({
      table,
      columns,
      values,
    });

    $.export("$summary", `Successfully added ${result.affectedRows} row(s) to table ${table}`);

    return result;
  },
};

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
MySQL	`mysql`	`app`	This component uses the MySQL app.
Table	`table`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Action Authentication#

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

Connecting to Restricted Databases

Either enable the shared static IP for this account below, or configure a VPC to deploy any workflow in your workspace to a private network with a dedicated static IP. Learn more in our docs.

SSL Setup

Configure SSL on your MySQL database by providing the CA (Certificate Authority), and choosing between Full Verification, Verify Certificate Authority (CA), or Skip Verification. Skipping verification is not recommended as this has serious security implications.
