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.

Trigger#

New Column on MySQL

Description:Emit new event when you add a new column to a table. [See the docs here](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/show-columns.html)

Version:2.0.5

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.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "mysql-new-column",
  name: "New Column",
  description: "Emit new event when you add a new column to a table. [See the docs here](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/show-columns.html)",
  type: "source",
  version: "2.0.5",
  dedupe: "unique",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
    db: "$.service.db",
  },
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    _getPreviousColumns() {
      return this.db.get("previousColumns");
    },
    _setPreviousColumns(previousColumns) {
      this.db.set("previousColumns", previousColumns);
    },
    async listResults() {
      const { table } = this;
      let previousColumns = this._getPreviousColumns() || [];
      const columns = await this.mysql.listNewColumns({
        table,
        previousColumns,
      });
      this.iterateAndEmitEvents(columns);

      const newColumnNames =
        columns
          .map((column) => column.Field)
          .filter((c) => !previousColumns.includes(c));

      previousColumns = previousColumns.concat(newColumnNames);
      this._setPreviousColumns(previousColumns);
    },
    generateMeta(column) {
      const columnName = column.Field;
      return {
        id: `${columnName}${this.table}`,
        summary: columnName,
        ts: Date.now(),
      };
    },
  },
};

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
MySQL	`mysql`	`app`	This component uses the MySQL app.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Table	`table`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.

Trigger 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.

About MySQL#

MySQL is an open-source relational database management system.

Google Workspace Admin Overview#

The Google Workspace Admin API unlocks the power to manage your organization's Google Workspace services. With Pipedream, leverage this API to automate user account management tasks, control devices, manage groups, and gain insights through reports. Simplify complex operational workflows and keep your Workspace environment finely tuned and secure without manual intervention.

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
Google Workspace Admin	`googleWorkspace`	`app`	This component uses the Google Workspace Admin app.
Application Name	`applicationName`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`access_transparencyadmincalendarchatdrivegcpgplusgroupsgroups_enterprisejamboardloginmeetmobilerulessamltokenuser_accountscontext_aware_accesschromedata_studiokeep`
User Key	`userKey`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
End Time	`endTime`	`string`	Sets the end of the range of time shown in the report. The date is in the RFC 3339 format, for example `2010-10-28T10:26:35.000Z`. The default value is the approximate time of the API request. For more details on this parameter see the docs here
Start Time	`startTime`	`string`	Sets the beginning of the range of time shown in the report. The date is in the RFC 3339 format, for example `2010-10-28T10:26:35.000Z`. The report returns all activities from Start Time until End Time. The Start Time must be before the End Time (if specified) and the current time when the request is made, or the API returns an error. For more details on this parameter see the docs here
Max Results	`maxResults`	`integer`	Determines how many activity records are shown on each response page. For example, if the request sets `maxResults=1` and the report has two activities, the report has two pages. The response's `nextPageToken` property has the token to the second page. The Max Results query string is optional in the request. The default value is `1000`. For more details on this parameter see the docs here
Filters	`filters`	`string`	The filters query string is a comma-separated list composed of event parameters manipulated by relational operators. Event parameters are in the form `{parameter1 name}{relational operator}{parameter1 value},{parameter2 name}{relational operator}{parameter2 value},....`. For more details on this parameter see the docs here
Event Name	`eventName`	`string`	The name of the event being queried by the API. Each Event Name is related to a specific Google Workspace service or feature which the API organizes into types of events. An example is the Google Calendar events in the Admin console application's reports. The Calendar Settings type structure has all of the Calendar Event Name activities reported by the API. When an administrator changes a Calendar setting, the API reports this activity in the Calendar Settings type and Event Name parameters. For more information about Event Name query strings and parameters, see the list of event names for various applications above in Application Name. For more details on this parameter see the docs here

Action Authentication#

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

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