What is the Process for Updating Information and Authentication for a Custom Component in Pipedream?

This topic was automatically generated from Slack. You can find the original thread here.

We would like to update some information and the authentication process for our custom component in Pipedream. What exactly is the process of it?

To update information and the authentication process for your custom component in Pipedream, here’s the general process you should follow: 1. Update Your Component Code - Modify your component’s code to reflect the new information or authentication changes. This may involve updating the props for authentication, changing how tokens are fetched or refreshed, or updating any metadata or descriptions. - If you’re using OAuth or another authentication method, ensure your props and any relevant methods (like auth or token refresh logic) are updated accordingly. 2. Test Locally or in the Pipedream UI - If you’re developing locally, use the Pipedream CLI to test your component. - If you’re editing a component in the Pipedream UI, update the code directly in your workflow and test the authentication flow to ensure it works as expected. 3. Publish or Update the Component - If your component is published to the Pipedream registry, you’ll need to submit the updated code for review. - If it’s a private component, simply update it in your workflows or wherever it’s used. 4. Verify and Document Changes - Make sure to test all authentication scenarios (new connections, token refresh, error handling). - Update any documentation or usage instructions to reflect the new authentication process. 5. Get Help or Feedback - For questions or to discuss best practices, you can join the discussion with other Pipedream component developers in the #contribute channel on Slack or on Discourse. - For official support, visit Pipedream Support.

Component is already asking for one of the needed field and and same we want to add 2nd one…basically they are API keys.

please create a new GitHub issue on Pipedream repo
