Pipefy Overview#

Pipefy is a platform that empowers users to streamline complex processes and workflows without the need for technical skills. With the Pipefy API, you can automate various aspects of your Pipefy environment, such as creating cards, updating fields, and managing pipelines programmatically. Use Pipedream to connect Pipefy with hundreds of other apps and orchestrate workflows that can save time, reduce errors, and enhance efficiency.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common-polling.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  name: "Card Overdue",
  key: "pipefy-card-overdue",
  description: "Emits an event each time a card becomes overdue in a Pipe.",
  version: "0.0.3",
  type: "source",
  methods: {
    isCardRelevant({
      node, event,
    }) {
      const { timestamp: eventTimestamp } = event;
      const eventDate = eventTimestamp * 1000;
      const { due_date: dueDateIso } = node;
      const dueDate = Date.parse(dueDateIso);
      return (
        dueDate < eventDate &&
        !node.done
      );
    },
    getMeta({
      node, event,
    }) {
      const {
        id,
        title: summary,
        due_date: dueDate,
      } = node;
      const { timestamp: eventTimestamp } = event;
      const ts = Date.parse(dueDate) || eventTimestamp;
      return {
        id,
        summary,
        ts,
      };
    },
  },
};

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
Pipefy	`pipefy`	`app`	This component uses the Pipefy app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Pipe ID	`pipeId`	`integer`	ID of the Pipe, found in the URL when viewing the Pipe.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`

Trigger Authentication#

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

To authorize requests to the Pipefy API, you'll need to generate a Personal access token. In order to create Pipefy triggers in Pipedream, you will need to be a Pipefy administrator.

Notion Overview#

Notion's API allows for the creation, reading, updating, and deleting of pages, databases, and their contents within Notion. Using Pipedream's platform, you can build workflows that connect Notion with various other services to automate tasks such as content management, task tracking, and data synchronization. With Pipedream's serverless execution, you can trigger these workflows on a schedule, or by external events from other services, without managing any infrastructure.
