Discord Overview#

The Discord API interacts seamlessly with Pipedream, empowering you to craft customized automations and workflows for your Discord server. With this powerful integration, you can automate tasks like message posting, user management, and notifications, based on a myriad of triggers and actions from different apps. These automations can enhance the Discord experience for community moderators and members, by synchronizing with external tools, organizing community engagement, and streamlining notifications.

Trigger Code#

import discord from "../../discord.app.mjs";

export default {
  key: "discord-message-deleted",
  name: "Message Deleted (Instant)",

  props: {
    discord,
    channels: {
      type: "$.discord.channel[]",
      appProp: "discord",
      label: "Channels",
      description: "Select the channel(s) you'd like to be notified for",
      optional: true,
    },
    discordApphook: {
      type: "$.interface.apphook",
      appProp: "discord",
      eventNames() {
        return this.channels?.length > 0
          ? this.channels.map((channel) => `MESSAGE_DELETE:${channel}`)
          : [
            "MESSAGE_DELETE",
          ];
      },
    },
  },
  async run(event) {
    this.$emit(event, {
      id: event.id,
      summary: `Message ${event.id} deleted from ${event.channel}`,
      ts: Date.now(),
    });
  },
};

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
Discord	`discord`	`app`	This component uses the Discord app.
Channels	`channels`	`$.discord.channel[]`	Select the channel(s) you'd like to be notified for

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

Grist Overview#

Grist API on Pipedream enables you to automate data management tasks in your Grist documents. This might mean syncing data across different platforms, triggering notifications based on data changes, or processing data through custom logic. With Pipedream, you can use the Grist API to build workflows that react to events in real-time, connect to hundreds of other services, manipulate data in sophisticated ways, and create custom endpoints to integrate with your Grist data.

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
Grist	`app`	`app`	This component uses the Grist app.
Document ID	`docId`	`string`	The ID of the Grist document to operate on. You can find this in the Settings menu of the document.
Table ID	`tableId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Do Not Parse	`noParse`	`boolean`	Set to `true` to prohibit parsing strings according to the column type.
On Many	`onMany`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`{ "value": "first", "label": "The first matching record (default)" }{ "value": "none", "label": "Do not update anything" }{ "value": "all", "label": "Update all matches" }`
No Add	`noAdd`	`boolean`	Set to true to prohibit adding records.
No Update	`noUpdate`	`boolean`	Set to true to prohibit updating records.
Data Records	`records`	`string[]`	The data for the records to append or update. Each record should be a JSON-formatted string, mapping column names to cell values. Eg. `[ { "fields": { "pet": "cat", "popularity": 67 } } ]`. Instead of an id, a `require` object is provided, with the same structure as `fields`. If no query parameter options are set, then the operation is as follows. First, we check if a record exists matching the values specified for columns in `require`. If so, we update it by setting the values specified for columns in fields. If not, we create a new record with a combination of the values in `require` and `fields`, with `fields` taking priority if the same column is specified in both. The query parameters allow for variations on this behavior. Eg. `[ { "require": { "pet": "cat" }, "fields": { "popularity": 67 } } ]`
