2. Select a Table
Deploy the workflow
Send a test event to validate your setup
Turn on the trigger

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#

New Session Ended on Sessions

Description:Emit new event when a session ends. Useful for data processing initiation. [See the documentation](https://api.app.sessions.us/api-docs/#/default/get_api_sessions)

Version:0.0.1

Key:sessions-new-session-ended

Sessions Overview#

The Sessions API enables developers to handle real-time data streams and manage user sessions effectively. With Pipedream's power to integrate various services, the Sessions API can be the backbone of workflows that require managing user states across events. You can track user activities, tailor user experiences based on session data, or even trigger specific actions when certain session events occur.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "sessions-new-session-ended",
  name: "New Session Ended",
  description: "Emit new event when a session ends. Useful for data processing initiation. [See the documentation](https://api.app.sessions.us/api-docs/#/default/get_api_sessions)",
  version: "0.0.1",
  type: "source",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    emitEvent(data) {
      this._setLastResourceId(data.id);

      this.$emit(data, {
        id: data.id,
        summary: `New session ended with id ${data.id}`,
        ts: Date.parse(data.startAt),
      });
    },
    async getResources(args = {}) {
      return this.sessions.getSessions(args);
    },
    filterResources(resources) {
      return resources.filter((resource) => !!resource.endedAt);
    },
  },
};

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
Sessions	`sessions`	`app`	This component uses the Sessions app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`

Trigger Authentication#

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

Action#

Create Row on MySQL

Description:Adds a new row. [See the docs here](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/insert.html)

Version:2.0.5

MySQL Overview#

The MySQL application on Pipedream enables direct interaction with your MySQL databases, allowing you to perform CRUD operations—create, read, update, delete—on your data with ease. You can leverage these capabilities to automate data synchronization, report generation, and event-based triggers that kick off workflows in other apps. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can connect MySQL to hundreds of other services without managing infrastructure, crafting complex code, or handling authentication.

Action Code#

import mysql from "../../mysql.app.mjs";
import utils from "../common/utils.mjs";

export default {
  key: "mysql-create-row",
  name: "Create Row",
  description: "Adds a new row. [See the docs here](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/insert.html)",
  type: "action",
  version: "2.0.5",
  props: {
    mysql,
    table: {
      description: "The table to add a row to",
      propDefinition: [
        mysql,
        "table",
      ],
      reloadProps: true,
    },
  },
  additionalProps() {
    return this.getColumnProps(this.table);
  },
  methods: utils,
  async run({ $ }) {
    const { table } = this;

    const {
      columns, values,
    } = await this.getColumnAndValueArrays(table);

    const result = await this.mysql.insertRow({
      table,
      columns,
      values,
    });

    $.export("$summary", `Successfully added ${result.affectedRows} row(s) to table ${table}`);

    return result;
  },
};

Action Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
MySQL	`mysql`	`app`	This component uses the MySQL app.
Table	`table`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Action Authentication#

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

Connecting to Restricted Databases

Either enable the shared static IP for this account below, or configure a VPC to deploy any workflow in your workspace to a private network with a dedicated static IP. Learn more in our docs.

SSL Setup

Configure SSL on your MySQL database by providing the CA (Certificate Authority), and choosing between Full Verification, Verify Certificate Authority (CA), or Skip Verification. Skipping verification is not recommended as this has serious security implications.
