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 Subscription on YouTube Data

Description:Emit new event for each new subscription from authenticated user.

Version:0.0.5

Key:youtube_data_api-new-subscription

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-subscription",
  name: "New Subscription",
  description: "Emit new event for each new subscription from authenticated user.",
  version: "0.0.5",
  dedupe: "unique",
  props: {
    youtubeDataApi,
    ...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.
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 or Update User on Userflow

Description:Creates or updates a user in Userflow. If the user does not already exist in Userflow, it will be created. If it already exists, the given attributes will be merged into the existing user's attributes. [See the documentation](https://docs.userflow.com/api/users/create-or-update)

Version:0.0.1

Userflow Overview#

The Userflow API allows you to automate and integrate the process of creating and managing in-app guides and walkthroughs. Using the API within Pipedream, you can programmatically trigger events, update user attributes, and manage flows, thereby creating a personalized user experience within your application. This opens up possibilities for syncing user data, customizing user onboarding experiences, and tracking user progress without manual intervention.
