Webflow Overview#

The Webflow API empowers developers to programmatically interact with their Webflow site, enabling automation, data synchronization, and complex integrations with other apps and services. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can harness this API to craft custom workflows that react to events, manage content dynamically, or extend the capabilities of your Webflow projects by linking them with a vast array of other applications.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  type: "source",
  key: "webflow-new-deleted-collection-item",
  name: "New Deleted Collection Item",
  description: "Emit new event when a collection item is deleted. [See the docs here](https://developers.webflow.com/#item-model)",
  version: "0.2.3",
  ...common,
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getWebhookTriggerType() {
      return "collection_item_deleted";
    },
    generateMeta(data) {
      return {
        id: data.itemId,
        summary: `Collection item ${data.itemId} deleted.`,
        ts: Date.parse(data["created-on"]),
      };
    },
  },
};

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
Webflow	`webflow`	`app`	This component uses the Webflow app.
Site	`siteId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
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.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

Twilio Overview#

Twilio's API on Pipedream opens up a multitude of communication capabilities, allowing you to build robust, scalable, and automated workflows. With Twilio, you can send and receive SMS and MMS messages, make voice calls, and perform other communication functions programmatically. Leveraging Pipedream's seamless integration, you can connect these communications features with hundreds of other services to automate notifications, streamline customer interactions, and enhance operational efficiency.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Twilio	`twilio`	`app`	This component uses the Twilio app.
From	`from`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

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.
