Details

This integration uses pre-built, source-available components from Pipedream's GitHub repo. These components are developed by Pipedream and the community, and verified and maintained by Pipedream.

To contribute an update to an existing component or create a new component, create a PR on GitHub. If you're new to Pipedream component development, you can start with quickstarts for trigger span and action development, and then review the component API reference.

Trigger

Description:Emit new event when a milestone is created in a project
Version:0.1.1
Key:gitlab-new-milestone

Gitlab Overview

Gitlab API allows developers to access the functionality of Gitlab. With the
Gitlab API, developers can integrate Gitlab with other applications, create
custom applications, or automate tasks.

Some examples of what you can build using the Gitlab API include:

  • Automate tasks such as creating and managing repositories
  • Integrate Gitlab with other applications such as your chat application
  • Create custom applications on top of Gitlab

Trigger Code

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

export default {
  key: "gitlab-new-milestone",
  name: "New Milestone",

    async activate() {
      const milestones = await this.gitlab.listMilestones(this.projectId, {
        max: 1,
      });
      if (milestones.length > 0) {
        const lastProcessedMilestoneId = milestones[0].id;
        this.db.set("lastProcessedMilestoneId", lastProcessedMilestoneId);
        console.log(`Polling GitLab milestones created after ID ${lastProcessedMilestoneId}`);

    },
    generateMeta(data) {
      const {
        id,
        created_at: createdAt,

        ts: +new Date(createdAt),
      };
    },
  },
  async run() {
    // We use the ID of the last processed milestone so that we
    // don't emit events for them (i.e. we only want to emit events
    // for new milestones).
    let lastProcessedMilestoneId = this._getLastProcessedMilestoneId();
    const milestones = await this.gitlab.getUnprocessedMilestones(
      this.projectId,
      lastProcessedMilestoneId,

    if (milestones.length === 0) {
      console.log("No new GitLab milestones detected");
      return;
    }

    console.log(`Detected ${milestones.length} new milestones`);

    // We store the most recent milestone ID in the DB so that
    // we don't process it (and previous milestones) in future runs.
    lastProcessedMilestoneId = milestones[0].id;
    this._setLastProcessedMilestoneId(lastProcessedMilestoneId);

    // We need to sort the retrieved milestones
    // in reverse order (since the Gitlab API sorts them
    // from most to least recent) and emit an event for each
    // one of them.
    milestones.reverse().forEach((milestone) => {
      const meta = this.generateMeta(milestone);
      this.$emit(milestone, meta);
    });
  },

Trigger Authentication

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

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

Action

Description:Assign a role to a user. Remember that your bot requires the `MANAGE_ROLES` permission. [See the docs here](https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/guild#add-guild-member-role)
Version:0.0.11
Key:discord_bot-add-role

Discord Bot Overview

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

Action Code

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

const { discord } = common.props;

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "discord_bot-add-role",
  name: "Add Role",
  description: "Assign a role to a user. Remember that your bot requires the `MANAGE_ROLES` permission. [See the docs here](https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/guild#add-guild-member-role)",
  type: "action",
  version: "0.0.11",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
    userId: {
      propDefinition: [
        discord,
        "userId",
        ({ guildId }) => ({
          guildId,
        }),
      ],
    },
    roleId: {
      propDefinition: [
        discord,
        "roleId",
        ({
          guildId, userId,
        }) => ({
          guildId,
          userId,
          isAddRole: true,
        }),
      ],
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const response = await this.discord.addGuildMemberRole({
      $,
      guildId: this.guildId,
      userId: this.userId,
      roleId: this.roleId,
    });

    if (!response) {
      return {
        id: this.roleId,
        success: true,
      };
    }

    return response;
  },
};

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.

LabelPropTypeDescription
Discord BotdiscordappThis component uses the Discord Bot app.
GuildguildIdstringSelect a value from the drop down menu.
UseruserIdstringSelect a value from the drop down menu.
RoleroleIdstringSelect a value from the drop down menu.

Action Authentication

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

This app allows you to use the Discord API using your own Discord bot. If you don't want to use a custom bot, and you just need to use the Discord API, exit this screen and use the Discord app, instead.


If you want to use your own Discord bot, but haven't created one yet, see these instructions or watch this video. You'll need to add this bot to your server(s) to make successful API requests.

Once you've created your bot, you'll find the Bot token within the Bot section of your app. Enter that token below.
