IMPLEMENTATION

Call this tool

Connect a user's Vestaboard account once, then configure and run Create Message from your backend or agent.

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "vestaboard-create-message",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    vestaboard: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    subscriptionId: "Subscription",
    text: "Text",
  },
})

console.log(result)

The message to send to the specified Subscription. If text is specified, lines will be centered horizontally and vertically if possible. Character codes will be inferred for alphanumeric and punctuation, or can be explicitly specified in-line in the message with curly braces containing the character code. Either text or characters must be entered.
Optional

A 6x22 two-dimensional array of character codes to send to the specified Subscription. If characters are specified, the characters will be shown in the exact position in the array. See Character Code Reference. Either text or characters must be entered.
