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.

Zoho Invoice Overview#

The Zoho Invoice API offers a suite of tools to automate the invoicing and billing processes. With this API, you can create and manage customers, invoices, and payments. On Pipedream, you can harness these capabilities to build workflows that trigger on specific events, such as new invoice creation, or scheduled tasks that could, for example, follow up on unpaid invoices. Due to its serverless architecture, Pipedream ensures each step of your workflow runs only when needed, saving resources and time.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "zoho_invoice-new-estimate-created",
  name: "New Estimate Created",
  description: "Triggers when a new estimate is created. [See the documentation](https://www.zoho.com/invoice/api/v3/estimates/#list-estimates).",
  type: "source",
  version: "0.0.1",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getResourceName() {
      return "estimates";
    },
    getResourceFn() {
      return this.app.listEstimates;
    },
    generateMeta(resource) {
      return {
        id: resource.estimate_id,
        summary: `New Estimate: ${resource.estimate_id}`,
        ts: Date.parse(resource.created_time),
      };
    },
  },
};

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
Zoho Invoice	`app`	`app`	This component uses the Zoho Invoice app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Polling schedule	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	How often to poll the API

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

ZohoInvoice.settings.READZohoInvoice.invoices.CREATEZohoInvoice.invoices.READZohoInvoice.estimates.CREATEZohoInvoice.estimates.READZohoInvoice.contacts.READZohoInvoice.contacts.Create

MySQL Overview#

The MySQL application on Pipedream enables direct interaction with your MySQL databases, allowing you to perform CRUD operations—create, read, update, delete—on your data with ease. You can leverage these capabilities to automate data synchronization, report generation, and event-based triggers that kick off workflows in other apps. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can connect MySQL to hundreds of other services without managing infrastructure, crafting complex code, or handling authentication.

Action Code#

import mysql from "../../mysql.app.mjs";

export default {
  key: "mysql-execute-raw-query",
  name: "Execute SQL Query",
  description: "Execute a custom MySQL query. See [our docs](https://pipedream.com/docs/databases/working-with-sql) to learn more about working with SQL in Pipedream.",
  type: "action",
  version: "2.0.1",
  props: {
    mysql,
    // eslint-disable-next-line pipedream/props-description
    sql: {
      type: "sql",
      auth: {
        app: "mysql",
      },
      label: "SQL Query",
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const args = this.mysql.executeQueryAdapter(this.sql);
    const data = await this.mysql.executeQuery(args);
    $.export("$summary", `Returned ${data.length} ${data.length === 1
      ? "row"
      : "rows"}`);
    return data;
  },
};

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
MySQL	`mysql`	`app`	This component uses the MySQL app.
SQL Query	`sql`	`sql`

Action Authentication#

MySQL uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your MySQL account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to MySQL APIs in both code and no-code steps.

Connecting to Restricted Databases

Either enable the shared static IP for this account below, or configure a VPC to deploy any workflow in your workspace to a private network with a dedicated static IP. Learn more in our docs.

SSL Setup

Configure SSL on your MySQL database by providing the CA (Certificate Authority), and choosing between Full Verification, Verify Certificate Authority (CA), or Skip Verification. Skipping verification is not recommended as this has serious security implications.
