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 Liked Videos on YouTube Data

Description:Emit new event for each new Youtube video liked by the authenticated user.

Version:0.0.5

Key:youtube_data_api-new-liked-videos

View on GitHub

YouTube Data Overview#

The YouTube Data API lets you incorporate functions normally executed on the YouTube website into your own website or application. You can perform operations like searching for videos, retrieving channel data, and managing playlists. When integrated with Pipedream's serverless platform, this API can be part of automations that react to events, synchronize YouTube data with other services, or generate custom reports.

Trigger Code#

import youtubeDataApi from "../../youtube_data_api.app.mjs";
import common from "./common.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  type: "source",
  key: "youtube_data_api-new-liked-videos",
  name: "New Liked Videos",
  description: "Emit new event for each new Youtube video liked by the authenticated user.",
  version: "0.0.5",
  dedupe: "unique",
  props: {
    youtubeDataApi,
    maxResults: {
      propDefinition: [
        youtubeDataApi,
        "maxResults",
      ],
    },
    ...common.props,
  },
};

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
YouTube Data	`youtubeDataApi`	`app`	This component uses the YouTube Data app.
Maximum Results	`maxResults`	`integer`	The maximum number of items that should be returned in the result set. Acceptable values are 0 to 50, inclusive. Default is 20
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Polling interval	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	Pipedream will poll the YouTube API on this schedule

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

emailprofilehttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtube.readonlyhttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtube.uploadhttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtubehttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtube.force-ssl

About YouTube Data#

With the YouTube Data API, you can add a variety of YouTube features to your application. Use the API to upload videos, manage playlists and subscriptions, update channel settings, and more.

Action#

Create User on Clerk

Description:Creates a new user. Your user management settings determine how you should setup your user model. [See the documentation](https://clerk.com/docs/reference/backend-api/tag/Users#operation/CreateUser)

Clerk Overview#

The Clerk API lets you manage user authentication and create secure, delightful user experiences in your apps. Within Pipedream's serverless platform, you can harness this API to automate workflows that trigger on user events, sync user data across apps, and maintain robust user management without the heavy lifting of building authentication infrastructure from scratch.

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
Clerk	`clerk`	`app`	This component uses the Clerk app.
External Id	`externalId`	`string`	The ID of the user as used in your external systems or your previous authentication solution. Must be unique across your instance.
First Name	`firstName`	`string`	The first name to assign to the user.
Last Name	`lastName`	`string`	The last name to assign to the user.
Email Addresses	`emailAddress`	`string[]`	Email addresses to add to the user. Must be unique across your instance. The first email address will be set as the user's primary email address.
Phone Numbers	`phoneNumber`	`string[]`	Phone numbers to add to the user. Must be unique across your instance. The first phone number will be set as user's primary phone number.
Web3 Wallets	`web3Wallet`	`string[]`	Web3 wallets to add to the user. Must be unique across your instance. The first wallet will be set as the user's primary wallet.
Username	`username`	`string`	The username to give to the user. It must be unique across your instance.
Password	`password`	`string`	The plaintext password to give to the user. Must be at least 8 characters long, and can not be in any list of hacked passwords.
Password Digest	`passwordDigest`	`string`	In case you already have the password digests and not the passswords, you can use them for the newly created user via this property. The digests should be generated with one of the supported algorithms. The hashing algorithm can be specified using the `Password Hasher` property.
Password Hasher	`passwordHasher`	`string`	The hashing algorithm that was used to generate the password digest. The algorithms that Clerk supports at the moment are `bcrypt`, `bcrypt_sha256_django`, `md5`, `pbkdf2_sha256`, `pbkdf2_sha256_django`, `phpass`, `scrypt_firebase` and 2 `argon2` variants, `argon2i` and `argon2id`. Each of the above expects the incoming digest to be of a particular format. See the documentarion for further information.
Skip Password Checks	`skipPasswordChecks`	`boolean`	When set to `true` all password checks are skipped. It is recommended to use this method only when migrating plaintext passwords to Clerk. Upon migration the user base should be prompted to pick stronger password.
Skip Password Requirement	`skipPasswordRequirement`	`boolean`	When set to `true`, `password` is not required anymore when creating the user and can be omitted. This is useful when you are trying to create a user that doesn't have a password, in an instance that is using passwords. Please note that you cannot use this flag if password is the only way for a user to sign into your instance.
TOTP Secret	`totpSecret`	`string`	In case TOTP is configured on the instance, you can provide the secret to enable it on the newly created user without the need to reset it.
Backup Codes	`backupCodes`	`string[]`	If Backup Codes are configured on the instance, you can provide them to enable it on the newly created user without the need to reset them. You must provide the backup codes in plain format or the corresponding bcrypt digest.
Public Metadata	`publicMetadata`	`object`	Metadata saved on the user, that is visible to both your Frontend and Backend APIs.
Private Metadata	`privateMetadata`	`object`	Metadata saved on the user, that is only visible to your Backend API.
Unsafe Metadata	`unsafeMetadata`	`object`	Metadata saved on the user, that can be updated from both the Frontend and Backend APIs. `Note: Since this data can be modified from the frontend, it is not guaranteed to be safe.`
Created At	`createdAt`	`string`	A custom date/time denoting when the user signed up to the application, specified in RFC3339 format (e.g. `2012-10-20T07:15:20.902Z`).
