  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "servicem8-create-category",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
