Shopify Overview#

The Shopify Admin REST & GraphQL API unleashes a myriad of possibilities to automate and enhance online store operations. It provides programmatic access to Shopify functionalities, allowing users to manage products, customers, orders, and more. Leveraging the Shopify Admin API within Pipedream, developers can create custom workflows that automate repetitive tasks, sync data across platforms, and respond dynamically to events in Shopify.

This integration can be used as a custom app on your store, or for automating actions on behalf of merchants through your Shopify app.

Trigger Code#

import constants from "../common/constants.mjs";
import common from "../common/webhook-metafields.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "shopify_developer_app-new-customer-created",
  name: "New Customer Created (Instant)",
  type: "source",
  description: "Emit new event for each new customer added to a store.",
  version: "0.0.5",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getTopic() {
      return constants.EVENT_TOPIC.CUSTOMERS_CREATE;
    },
    generateMeta(resource) {
      const ts = Date.parse(resource.created_at);
      return {
        id: resource.id,
        summary: `New Customer ${resource.id}.`,
        ts,
      };
    },
  },
};

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
Shopify	`app`	`app`	This component uses the Shopify 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.
Metafield Namespaces	`metafieldNamespaces`	`string[]`	Array of namespaces for any metafields that should be included with each webhook. Metafield definitions can be found in your store's Settings -> Custom Data. Select a metafield to view its namespace under "Namespace and key". For example, if the value is `custom.test_metafield`, the namespace is `custom`.
Private Metafield Namespaces	`privateMetafieldNamespaces`	`string[]`	Array of namespaces for any private metafields that should be included with each webhook. Metafield definitions can be found in your store's Settings -> Custom Data. Select a metafield to view its namespace under "Namespace and key". For example, if the value is `custom.test_metafield`, the namespace is `custom`.

Trigger Authentication#

Little Green Light Overview#

The Little Green Light API provides access to a robust donor management platform, allowing for the creation, retrieval, update, and deletion of donor data. With the API, you can automate tasks related to fundraising, event management, and donor engagement. On Pipedream, you can harness this API to construct serverless workflows that trigger on various events, integrate with other apps, and automate repetitive tasks without managing infrastructure.

Note: Little Green Light strongly recommends against connecting your LGL account with any AI services like ChatGPT, as that could lead to unintended use of personal data.
