Trigger#

New Incident Created (Instant) on Statuspage

Description:Emit new event on each created incident.

Version:0.0.3

Key:statuspage-new-incident-created

View on GitHub

Statuspage Overview#

The Statuspage API allows you to automate the management and orchestration of incident communication directly from Pipedream. With this API, you can create, update, and resolve incidents, manage maintenance events, and retrieve information about components and subscribers. It's an efficient way to ensure transparency and inform stakeholders during outages or scheduled maintenance by programmatically controlling your status pages.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,
  name: "New Incident Created (Instant)",
  version: "0.0.3",
  key: "statuspage-new-incident-created",
  description: "Emit new event on each created incident.",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    async deploy() {
      const incidents = await this.statuspage.getIncidents({
        pageId: this.pageId,
        params: {
          limit: 20,
        },
      });

      incidents.reverse().forEach(this.emitEvent);
    },
    emitEvent(event) {
      const data = event?.incident ?? event;

      this.$emit(data, {
        id: data.id,
        summary: `New incident created with id ${data.id}`,
        ts: Date.parse(data.created_at),
      });
    },
  },
};

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
Statuspage	`statuspage`	`app`	This component uses the Statuspage app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.interface.http` to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the `run()` method of the component.
Page ID	`pageId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Component IDs	`componentIds`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Email	`email`	`string`	We'll send an email to this address if the endpoint fails

Trigger Authentication#

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

Follow these instructions to find your API key, and enter it below.

On that same page, you'll see a list of page IDs. Enter the ID of the page you'd like to manage below.

Xero Accounting Overview#

The Xero Accounting API offers a powerful gateway to access and manipulate financial data within Xero. Leveraging Pipedream's capabilities, developers can build custom workflows that streamline accounting processes, sync financial data with external systems, and trigger actions based on financial events. This API allows for the automation of tasks such as invoicing, bank reconciliation, bill payments, and reporting, which can lead to significant time savings and enhanced data accuracy.
