YouTube (Data API) Overview#

There are lots of things you can build using the YouTube API! Here are just a
few examples:

A YouTube video player
A YouTube search engine
A tool to help you find popular videos on YouTube
A way to keep track of your favorite YouTube videos
A way to find new and interesting YouTube channels to watch

Trigger Code#

import youtubeDataApi from "../../youtube_data_api.app.mjs";
import common from "./common.mjs";

/**
 * Uses [YouTube API](https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs) to get the authenticated user's
 * subscriptions with a `totalItemCount` for each. The user's subscriptions are used to get the
 * subscribed-to channels. Then the ID of the 'uploads' playlist in each channel is used to get
 * playlist items of recently uploaded videos. Process is taken roughly from [this stackoverflow
 * comment](https://bit.ly/3lp4uRS).
 *
 * Sequence: Subscriptions -> Channels -> PlaylistItems
 *
 * The YouTube API allows [listing channels](https://bit.ly/3Fh5Hm2) using a comma-separated list of
 * channel IDs, so channels are fetched using a single series of paginated requests. To list
 * playlist items [PlaylistItems](https://bit.ly/2WN7EW2), a separate request must be made for each
 * channel's 'uploads' playlist. To limit the number of requests, playlist items are fetched only
 * for channels (subscriptions) whose [totalItemCount](https://bit.ly/3ldUYAR) is greater than the
 * last recorded `totalItemCount`.

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
YouTube (Data API)	`youtubeDataApi`	`app`	This component uses the YouTube (Data API) app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Polling interval	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	Pipedream will poll the YouTube API on this schedule

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

emailprofilehttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtube.readonlyhttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtube.uploadhttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtube

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.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Discord Bot	`discord`	`app`	This component uses the Discord Bot app.
Guild	`guildId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
User	`userId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Role	`roleId`	`string`	Select 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.
