TeamGantt Overview#

The TeamGantt API allows you to interact programmatically with your TeamGantt project management data. With it, you can create, read, update, and delete various project elements, such as tasks, milestones, and time entries. Integrating the TeamGantt API with Pipedream enables you to automate your project workflows, sync data across platforms, and react to events in real-time. By leveraging Pipedream's capabilities, you can connect TeamGantt to a myriad of other apps and services to streamline your project management processes.

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
TeamGantt	`teamgantt`	`app`	This component uses the TeamGantt app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.

Target	`type`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`projectsgroupstasks`

Trigger Authentication#

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

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