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 Code#

import googleDrive from "../../google_drive.app.mjs";
import { DEFAULT_POLLING_SOURCE_TIMER_INTERVAL } from "@pipedream/platform";

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.
Polling interval	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	Interval to poll the Google Drive API for new shared drives

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:

emailprofilehttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/drivehttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.readonly

About Google Drive#

Google Drive is a file storage and synchronization service which allows you to create and share your work online, and access your documents from anywhere.

nocodb Overview#

The NoCodeB (NocoDB) API transforms your databases into a smart Excel sheet, providing a platform for managing your data with the ease of a spreadsheet interface. When combined with Pipedream's capabilities, this API allows you to automate data operations, sync with other databases or apps, and streamline workflows without writing complex code. Using Pipedream, you can trigger events based on changes in your NocoDB, process and manipulate the data, and connect to countless apps to extend functionality, such as sending notifications, updating CRMs, or generating reports.

Action Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "nocodb-add-record",
  name: "Add Record",
  description: "This action adds a record in a table. [See the documentation](https://data-apis-v2.nocodb.com/#tag/Table-Records/operation/db-data-table-row-create)",
  version: "0.0.3",
  type: "action",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
    data: {
      propDefinition: [
        common.props.nocodb,
        "data",
      ],
    },
  },
  methods: {
    async processEvent($) {
      const data = typeof this.data === "string"
        ? JSON.parse(this.data)
        : this.data;
      return this.nocodb.createTableRow({
        tableId: this.tableId.value,
        data,
        $,
      });
    },
    getSummary() {
      return `Record Successfully added in ${this.tableId.label} table!`;
    },
  },
};

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
nocodb	`nocodb`	`app`	This component uses the nocodb app.
Workspace ID	`workspaceId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Project ID	`projectId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Table ID	`tableId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
data	`data`	`any`	Enter Json Formated data

Action Authentication#

nocodb uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your nocodb account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to nocodb APIs in both code and no-code steps.

Your API key can be found in API Tokens Management within your database.
Your domain is where your app is hosted, so for https://mytable.com use mytable.com for the domain.
