Is there a Way to Update Environment Variables via Actions in Workflows for a Non-existent Connected App Oauth Setup?

Hey all,
i’m looking to set up an oauth work around for a connected app that does not exist yet. Is there a way to update environment variables via actions in workflows?

Hi George, we’re always happy to do the work to add a new OAuth integration — which app is this for?

It would be for EagleView’s Property Data API

I submitted a request on github: [APP] EagleView Property Data API · Issue #12222 · PipedreamHQ/pipedream · GitHub

but if there’s a way i can set environment variables from the workflow, i can build a temporary work around

awesome thanks, we’ll take a look ASAP. There’s not an API for updating environment variables, but as a workaround, you could store access tokens in a data store and read them in relevant workflows.

might as well! even if that token get’s leaked it’s only good for 1 hour and it can’t do much damage $500 max

thanks for your always prompt responses and the best automation tool on the market

PS Does Pipedream have an affiliate program? I’m starting a new series where i’ll be creating new internal automations per my audiences’ request weekly and leveraging pipedream as my tool of choice

that’s awesome! Yes, we do: Pipedream Affiliate Program - Pipedream

Do you publish those on YouTube or elsewhere? We also have a template gallery that you can submit workflow templates to, and include your affiliate link there, so that any sign up that results from copying the template gets tracked via your affiliate account
