ServiceM8 Overview#

The ServiceM8 API allows businesses to streamline their field service management by automating tasks and integrating with other tools. Through Pipedream, you can harness this API to create custom workflows that trigger actions within ServiceM8 or sync data with other apps. Automate job scheduling, dispatching, invoicing, and more by reacting to events in real-time. Enhance productivity by connecting ServiceM8 to CRMs, accounting software, or custom databases, ensuring consistent and updated information across platforms.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,
  name: "New Job Completed (Instant)",
  key: "servicem8-job-completed",
  description: "Emit new event when a job completes. By creating this trigger, any other `Job` triggers will stop working as ServiceM8 will replace any previous ones.",
  version: "0.0.2",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    async processEvent(body) {
      const {
        uuid, time,
      } = body.entry[0];

      const { status } = await this.servicem8.getJob(uuid);

      if (status === "Completed") {
        const meta = this.getMeta({
          uuid,
          time,
        });
        this.$emit(body, meta);
      }
    },
    getMeta({
      uuid, time,
    }) {
      const eventTime = time || new Date().getTime();

      return {
        id: uuid + time,
        summary: `New job completed with uuid: ${uuid}`,
        ts: eventTime,
      };
    },
    getParams() {
      return {
        object: "Job",
        fields: "status",
      };
    },
  },
};

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
ServiceM8	`servicem8`	`app`	This component uses the ServiceM8 app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.interface.http` to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the `run()` method of the component.

Trigger Authentication#

ServiceM8 uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your ServiceM8 account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into ServiceM8 and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any ServiceM8 API.

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

Slack Overview#

The Pipedream Slack app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Slack API. Once you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your workspace, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Slack actions or write your own code against the Slack API.

The Pipedream Slack app is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.

Automate posting updates to your team channels
Create a bot to answer common questions
Integrate with your existing tools and services
And much more!
