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.

Statuscake Overview#

StatusCake provides a powerful API that allows you to automate the monitoring of your websites and servers. With this API on Pipedream, you can create workflows that respond to uptime events, performance metrics, and maintain a robust oversight of your web infrastructure's health. The API enables you to automate alerting, integrate with other tools for a seamless DevOps ecosystem, and perform actions based on the status of your monitored endpoints.

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
Statuscake	`statuscake`	`app`	This component uses the Statuscake app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Uptime ID	`uptimeId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

Generate your Statuscake API Key by going to your Account Details tab within StatusCake and then clicking the API Key button.

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
AWS	`aws`	`app`	This component uses the AWS app.
AWS Region	`region`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Table Name	`tableName`	`string`	The name of the table
Key Hash Attribute Name	`keyPrimaryAttributeName`	`string`	The name of the partition key
Key Hash Attribute Type	`keyPrimaryAttributeType`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`{ "label": "string", "value": "S" }{ "label": "number", "value": "N" }{ "label": "binary", "value": "B" }`
Key Range Attribute Name	`keySecondaryAttributeName`	`string`	The name of the sort key

Action Authentication#

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

Follow the AWS Instructions for creating an IAM user with an associated access and secret key.

As a best practice, attach the minimum set of IAM permissions necessary to perform the specific task in Pipedream. If your workflow only needs to perform a single API call, you should create a user and associate an IAM group / policy with permission to do only that task. You can create as many linked AWS accounts in Pipedream as you'd like.

Enter your access and secret key below.
