Trengo Overview#

The Trengo API provides programmatic access to Trengo's multi-channel communication platform, allowing for the streamlining of customer interactions across various channels such as email, SMS, social media, and chat. By leveraging the Trengo API on Pipedream, you can automate customer support workflows, sync communication data with CRM systems, and trigger alerts or actions based on specific customer queries or events.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  key: "trengo-phone-call-missed",
  name: "New Phone Call Missed Event",
  description: "Emit new events when an phone call missed. [See the docs here](https://developers.trengo.com/docs/webhooks)",
  version: "0.0.1",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  ...common,
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getMeta(event) {
      return {
        id: Date.now(),
        ts: Date.now(),
        summary: `New phone call missed event: ${event?.body?.from} => ${event?.body?.to}`,
      };
    },
    getEvent() {
      return  "VOICE_CALL_MISSED";
    },
  },
};

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

Trigger Authentication#

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

You need a personal access token to access the API and to perform actions on your behalf. Your personal access token needs to be send trough an Authorization Bearer request. See docs.

Action Authentication#

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

To connect your Twilio account to Pipedream,

API Key and API Key SID

First, create an API key in Twilio.

There are three types of keys: Main, Standard, and Restricted. You'll need a Main key to interact with certain API endpoints, like /Accounts.
If you don't need to interact with those endpoints, you can use a Standard or Restricted key.

After creating your key, you'll see fields for Sid and Secret. Enter those in the fields below.

Account SID and Auth Token

Visit your Twilio Dashboard. You'll see your Account SID and Auth Token under Account info.
