Google Drive Overview#

The Google Drive API on Pipedream allows you to automate various file management tasks, such as creating, reading, updating, and deleting files within your Google Drive. You can also share files, manage permissions, and monitor changes to files and folders. This opens up possibilities for creating workflows that seamlessly integrate with other apps and services, streamlining document handling, backup processes, and collaborative workflows.

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
Google Drive	`googleDrive`	`app`	This component uses the Google Drive app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Drive	`drive`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
File	`fileId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive

Bot for Slack Overview#

The bot for Slack allows you to build rich, interactive bots for Slack workspaces. These bots can respond to messages, post updates, and interact with users in various ways. With the bot for Slack on Pipedream, developers can create automated workflows that trigger on specific events in Slack, such as new messages or reactions, and then perform defined actions, like sending data to other apps or processing the information within Pipedream's serverless platform. This tight integration with Pipedream enables both simple and complex automations, leveraging Pipedream's ability to connect with numerous apps and its powerful built-in code steps.

Action Code#

import component from "@pipedream/slack/actions/add-emoji-reaction/add-emoji-reaction.mjs";
import utils from "../../common/utils.mjs";

/* eslint-disable pipedream/required-properties-type */
/* eslint-disable pipedream/required-properties-name */

export default {
  ...component,
  props: utils.buildAppProps({
    component,
  }),
  key: "slack_bot-add-emoji-reaction",
  description: "Add an emoji reaction to a message. [See the documentation](https://api.slack.com/methods/reactions.add)",
  version: "0.0.3",
};

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
Bot for Slack	`slack`	`app`	This component uses the Bot for Slack app.
