Ramp Overview#

The Ramp API provides programmatic access to financial and accounting functionalities, allowing for the management of company cards, transactions, and reporting. By leveraging the Ramp API within Pipedream, you can automate intricate finance operations, synchronize transaction data with accounting software, trigger notifications based on spending activities, and analyze financial data in real-time, integrating with other services for enhanced financial workflows.

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
Ramp	`ramp`	`app`	This component uses the Ramp app.
State	`state`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`CLEAREDPENDINGDECLINED`
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`

Trigger Authentication#

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

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