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: "xero_accounting_api-upload-file",
externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
configuredProps: {
xero_accounting_api: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
tenantId: "Tenant ID",
filePathOrUrl: "File Path or URL",
},
})
