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#

Contact Updated on ProWorkflow

Description:Emit new event when a contact is updated. [See the docs](https://api.proworkflow.net/?documentation#gettingstartedgetfields).

ProWorkflow Overview#

The ProWorkflow API offers a powerhouse of project management and workflow automation capabilities. With Pipedream, you can leverage these abilities to create custom integrations that boost productivity and streamline operations. By tapping into ProWorkflow's endpoints, you can automate project creation, task assignments, time tracking, and report generation. This API dovetails neatly with other apps on Pipedream, allowing you to create multifaceted workflows that respond in real-time to external triggers, such as emails, form submissions, and calendar events.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/webhook.mjs";
import constants from "../../common/constants.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "proworkflow-contact-updated",
  name: "Contact Updated",
  description: "Emit new event when a contact is updated. [See the docs](https://api.proworkflow.net/?documentation#gettingstartedgetfields).",
  type: "source",
  version: "0.0.1",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getEventName() {
      return constants.EVENT_NAME.EDITCONTACT;
    },
    generateMeta(event) {
      const ts = Date.parse(event.contact.lastmodified);
      return {
        id: `${event.id}-${ts}`,
        summary: `Contact Updated: ${event.contact.id}`,
        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
ProWorkflow	`app`	`app`	This component uses the ProWorkflow app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.interface.http` to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the `run()` method of the component.

Trigger Authentication#

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

ProWorkflow requires their users enter their account API key as well as username (or email) and password in order to connect to their API. For more info, refer to ProWorkflow's documentation.

Get your API key in the main ProWorkflow application
Pipedream recommends using a strong and unique password for your ProWorkflow account

Action#

Send any HTTP Request on HTTP / Webhook

Description:Send an HTTP request using any method and URL. Optionally configure query string parameters, headers, and basic auth.

Version:1.1.1

Key:http-custom-request

HTTP / Webhook Overview#

Build, test, and send HTTP requests without code using your Pipedream workflows. The HTTP / Webhook action is a tool to build HTTP requests with a Postman-like graphical interface.

Point and click HTTP requests

Define the target URL, HTTP verb, headers, query parameters, and payload body without writing custom code.

$A screenshot of Pipedream's HTTP Request Configuration interface with a GET request type selected. The request URL is set to 'https://api.openai.com/v1/models'. The 'Auth' tab is highlighted, indicating that authentication is required for this request. In the headers section, there are two headers configured: 'User-Agent' is set to 'pipedream/1', and 'Authorization' is set to 'Bearer {{openai_api_key}}', showing how the OpenAI account's API key is dynamically inserted into the headers to handle authentication automatically.$

Here's an example workflow that uses the HTTP / Webhook action to send an authenticated API request to OpenAI.

Focus on integrating, not authenticating

This action can also use your connected accounts with third-party APIs. Selecting an integrated app will automatically update the request’s headers to authenticate with the app properly, and even inject your token dynamically.

Pipedream integrates with thousands of APIs, but if you can’t find a Pipedream integration simply use Environment Variables in your request headers to authenticate with.

Compatible with no code actions or Node.js and Python

The HTTP/Webhook action exports HTTP response data for use in subsequent workflow steps, enabling easy data transformation, further API calls, database storage, and more.

Response data is available for both coded (Node.js, Python) and no-code steps within your workflow.

Action Code#

import http from "../../http.app.mjs";

export default {
  key: "http-custom-request",
  name: "Send any HTTP Request",
  description: "Send an HTTP request using any method and URL. Optionally configure query string parameters, headers, and basic auth.",
  type: "action",
  version: "1.1.1",
  props: {
    http,
    httpRequest: {
      propDefinition: [
        http,
        "httpRequest",
      ],
    },
    includeHeaders: {
      type: "boolean",
      label: "Include Response Headers",
      description: "Optionally export the full response headers",
      optional: true,
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const response = await this.httpRequest.execute();

    if (this.includeHeaders) {
      $.export("headers", response.headers);
    }

    return response;
  },
};
