const pd = new PipedreamClient({
projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,

})
const result = await pd.actions.run({
id: "super_carl-send-communication",
externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
configuredProps: {
super_carl: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
