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.

Slack Overview

The Pipedream Slack app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Slack API. Once you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your workspace, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Slack actions or write your own code against the Slack API.

The Pipedream Slack app is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.

  • Automate posting updates to your team channels
  • Create a bot to answer common questions
  • Integrate with your existing tools and services
  • And much more!

Trigger Code

import common from "../common/base.mjs";
import sampleEmit from "./test-event.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "slack-new-channel-created",
  name: "New Channel Created (Instant)",
  version: "0.0.7",

Trigger Authentication

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

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

channels:historychannels:readchannels:writeemoji:readgroups:historygroups:readgroups:writeim:historyim:readim:writelinks:readlinks:writempim:historympim:readmpim:writereactions:readreactions:writereminders:readreminders:writestars:readteam:readusergroups:readusergroups:writeusers:readusers:read.emailusers:writechat:write:botchat:write:userfiles:write:usercommandsusers.profile:writeusers.profile:read

About Slack

Slack is a channel-based messaging platform. With Slack, people can work together more effectively, connect all their software tools and services, and find the information they need to do their best work — all within a secure, enterprise-grade environment.

Cohere Overview

The Cohere API enables the development of apps with advanced natural language understanding capabilities. Utilizing machine learning, it can help with tasks like text generation, summarization, sentiment analysis, and more. On Pipedream, you can seamlessly integrate Cohere's features into serverless workflows, triggering actions based on text input, processing large volumes of data, or even enhancing chatbots with more human-like responses.

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.

LabelPropTypeDescription
CohereappappThis component uses the Cohere app.
Messagemessagestring

Text input for the model to respond to. Compatible Deployments: Cohere Platform, Azure, AWS Sagemaker, Private Deployments

ModelmodelstringSelect a value from the drop down menu:command-r-pluscommand-rcommandcommand-nightlycommand-lightcommand-light-nightlyembed-english-v3.0embed-english-light-v3.0embed-multilingual-v3.0embed-multilingual-light-v3.0embed-english-v2.0embed-english-light-v2.0embed-multilingual-v2.0rerank-english-v3.0rerank-multilingual-v3.0rerank-english-v2.0rerank-multilingual-v2.0
Temperaturetemperaturestring

Must be between 0 and 1.0 inclusive that tunes the degree of randomness in generation. Lower temperatures mean less random generations, and higher temperatures mean more random generations.
Randomness can be further maximized by increasing the value of the P parameter. Compatible Deployments: Cohere Platform, Azure, AWS Sagemaker, Private Deployments See Temperature for more details.

Max TokensmaxTokensinteger

The maximum number of tokens the model will generate as part of the response. Note: Setting a low value may result in incomplete generations. Compatible Deployments: Cohere Platform, Azure, AWS Sagemaker, Private Deployments. See BPE Tokens for more details.

Kkinteger

Ensures only the top K most likely tokens are considered for generation at each step. Defaults to 0, min value of 0, max value of 500. Compatible Deployments: Cohere Platform, Azure, AWS Sagemaker, Private Deployments

Ppstring

Ensures that only the most likely tokens, with total probability mass of P, are considered for generation at each step. If both K and P are enabled, P acts after K. Defaults to 0.75. min value of 0.01, max value of 0.99. Compatible Deployments: Cohere Platform, Azure, AWS Sagemaker, Private Deployments

Stop SequencesstopSequencesstring[]

A list of up to 5 strings that the model will use to stop generation. If the model generates a string that matches any of the strings in the list, it will stop generating tokens and return the generated text up to that point not including the stop sequence. Compatible Deployments: Cohere Platform, Azure, AWS Sagemaker, Private Deployments

Frequency PenaltyfrequencyPenaltystring

Defaults to 0.0, min value of 0.0, max value of 1.0. Used to reduce repetitiveness of generated tokens. The higher the value, the stronger a penalty is applied to previously present tokens, proportional to how many times they have already appeared in the prompt or prior generation. Compatible Deployments: Cohere Platform, Azure, AWS Sagemaker, Private Deployments

Action Authentication

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

Generate and copy your API key from your Cohere Platform dashboard.
