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.

Trigger#

New or Updated Row on MySQL

Description:Emit new event when you add or modify a new row in a table. [See the docs here](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/select.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";
import { v4 as uuidv4 } from "uuid";

const { mysql } = common.props;

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "mysql-new-or-updated-row",
  name: "New or Updated Row",
  description: "Emit new event when you add or modify a new row in a table. [See the docs here](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/select.html)",
  type: "source",
  version: "2.0.5",
  dedupe: "unique",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
    db: "$.service.db",
    column: {
      propDefinition: [
        mysql,
        "column",
        (c) => ({
          table: c.table,
        }),
      ],
      label: "Order By",
      description:
        "A datetime column, such as 'date_updated' or 'last_modified' that is set to the current datetime when a row is updated.",
    },
  },
  hooks: {
    async deploy() {
      await this.listTopRows(this.column);
    },
  },
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    async listResults() {
      await this.listRowResults(this.column);
    },
    generateMeta(row) {
      return {
        id: uuidv4(),
        summary: `New Row Added/Updated ${row[this.column]}`,
        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.
Order By	`column`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

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.

Teamwork Desk Overview#

The Teamwork Desk API provides the means to programmatically access and manipulate customer support ticket data. By integrating it with Pipedream, you can automate ticketing workflows, streamline customer interactions, and connect support data with other business tools. Whether syncing tickets to a CRM, setting up custom alerts, or generating reports, the API's capabilities allow for a variety of automations to enhance support operations.

Action Authentication#

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

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