Pushbullet acts as a bridge, connecting your devices with push notifications and file sharing capabilities. By leveraging the Pushbullet API on Pipedream, you can automate notifications for a host of events, enabling real-time alerts on your phone, browser, or desktop. Whether you're monitoring server uptimes, tracking sales, or simply staying on top of to-do lists, integrating Pushbullet with other services via Pipedream workflows can streamline your notification management and data sharing tasks.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
pushbullet: {
type: "app",
app: "pushbullet",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.pushbullet.com/v2/users/me`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.pushbullet.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})
Real-Time Error Logging Notifications: If your web application encounters a critical error, you can use the Pushbullet API to send an immediate notification. Set up a Pipedream workflow where an HTTP request triggers an event in your system that, upon error detection, pushes a notification through Pushbullet with error details. For enhanced efficiency, connect this with logging tools like Sentry or Loggly.
E-commerce Sale Alert: Stay informed about new orders on your e-commerce platform. Create a Pipedream workflow that listens for new Stripe charges. When a customer completes a purchase, Pipedream sends a message via Pushbullet with the sale details. This can help you track sales in real-time, providing instant gratification and allowing for quick response to high-value orders.
IoT Device Monitoring: Keep tabs on your IoT devices with Pushbullet notifications. Set up a Pipedream workflow where a Raspberry Pi publishes a message to an MQTT topic about its status, which Pipedream subscribes to. When specific conditions are met, like temperature thresholds being exceeded, Pipedream triggers a Pushbullet notification to alert you immediately, keeping you in the loop for timely interventions.

Pushbullet uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Pushbullet account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Pushbullet and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Pushbullet API.
Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
GET
https://www.pushbullet.com/authorize
?
client_id={{oauth.client_id}}
&
redirect_uri={{oauth.redirect_uri}}
&
state={{oauth.state}}
&
response_type=code
&
scope={{oauth.space_separated_scopes}}
POST
https://api.pushbullet.com/oauth2/token
content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
accept: application/json
client_id={{oauth.client_id}}
&
client_secret={{oauth.client_secret}}
&
redirect_uri={{oauth.redirect_uri}}
&
grant_type=authorization_code
&
code={{oauth.code}}
