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.

Trigger#

New or Modified Task on Todoist

Description:Emit new event for each new or modified task. [See the docs here](https://developer.todoist.com/sync/v8/#read-resources)

Version:0.0.6

Todoist Overview#

The Todoist API unlocks the potential to automate task management with precision. With Pipedream, you can craft workflows that react to events in Todoist, like task completions or due date changes, or drive actions in Todoist, such as creating tasks or updating projects. By integrating Todoist with Pipedream, you can seamlessly connect your to-do list with other apps to streamline your productivity, manage tasks based on triggers from other services, or compile reports on your task management patterns.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "todoist-new-or-modified-task",
  name: "New or Modified Task",
  description: "Emit new event for each new or modified task. [See the docs here](https://developer.todoist.com/sync/v8/#read-resources)",
  version: "0.0.6",
  type: "source",
};

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
Todoist	`todoist`	`app`	This component uses the Todoist app.
Polling Interval	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	Pipedream will poll the Todoist API on this schedule
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Select Projects	`selectProjects`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

task:adddata:read_writedata:deleteproject:delete

About Todoist#

Todoist is a delightfully simple yet powerful task planner and to-do list app.

PostgreSQL Overview#

On Pipedream, you can leverage the PostgreSQL app to create workflows that automate database operations, synchronize data across platforms, and react to database events in real-time. Think handling new row entries, updating records from webhooks, or even compiling reports on a set schedule. Pipedream's serverless platform provides a powerful way to connect PostgreSQL with a variety of apps, enabling you to create tailored automation that fits your specific needs.

Action Code#

import postgresql from "../../postgresql.app.mjs";

export default {
  name: "Find Row With Custom Query",
  key: "postgresql-find-row-custom-query",
  description: "Finds a row in a table via a custom query. [See the documentation](https://node-postgres.com/features/queries)",
  version: "2.0.6",
  type: "action",
  props: {
    postgresql,
    query: {
      propDefinition: [
        postgresql,
        "query",
      ],
    },
    values: {
      propDefinition: [
        postgresql,
        "values",
      ],
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const {
      query,
      values = [],
    } = this;

    if (!Array.isArray(values)) {
      throw new Error("No valid values provided. The values property must be an array.");
    }

    if (this.values) {
      const numberOfValues = query?.match(/\$/g)?.length || 0;
      if (values.length !== numberOfValues) {
        throw new Error("The number of values provided does not match the number of values in the query.");
      }
    }

    if (!query.toLowerCase().includes("select")) {
      throw new Error("Need be a `SELECT` statement query. Read more about [SELECT queries here](https://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_select.asp)");
    }

    try {
      const res = await this.postgresql.executeQuery({
        text: query,
        values,
      });
      $.export("$summary", "Successfully executed query");
      return res;
    } catch (error) {
      let errorMsg = "Query not executed due to an error. ";
      errorMsg += `${error}`.includes("SSL verification failed")
        ? "This could be because SSL verification failed. To resolve this, reconnect your account and set SSL Verification Mode: Skip Verification, and try again."
        : `${error}`;
      throw new Error(errorMsg);
    }
  },
};

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
PostgreSQL	`postgresql`	`app`	This component uses the PostgreSQL app.
SQL Query	`query`	`string`	Your custom SQL Query using `$1`, `$2`... to represent values (eg. `INSERT INTO users(name, email) VALUES($1, $2)`
Values	`values`	`string[]`	List of values represented in your SQL Query above

Action Authentication#

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

Connecting to Restricted Databases

Either enable the shared static IP for this account below, or configure a VPC to deploy any workflow in your workspace to a private network with a dedicated static IP. Learn more in our docs.

SSL Setup

Configure SSL on your PostgreSQL database by providing the CA (Certificate Authority), and choosing between Full Verification, Verify Certificate Authority (CA), or Skip Verification. Skipping verification is not recommended as this has serious security implications.
