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-reaction-added",
  name: "Reaction Added (Instant)",
  description: "Emit new event for each reaction added to a message",
  version: "0.0.3",
  type: "source",
  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_REACTION_ADD:${channel}`)
          : [
            "MESSAGE_REACTION_ADD",
          ];
      },
    },
  },
  async run(event) {
    this.$emit(event, {
      id: event.messageId,
      summary: `Reaction added to message ${event.messageId}`,
      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:

Lob Overview#

The Lob API provides a suite of automation capabilities focused on direct mail, address verification, and print management. With Lob, you can automate the sending of physical mail programmatically, verify addresses to ensure deliverability, and manage printing logistics for marketing campaigns or operational needs. It's a powerful tool for bridging the digital and physical mailing worlds, particularly useful for marketing, billing, and compliance communications.

Action Code#

import { defineAction } from "@pipedream/types";
import lob from "../../app/lob.app.mjs";
export default defineAction({
    key: "lob-cancel-postcard",
    name: "Cancel Postcard",
    description: "Completely removes a postcard from production. This can only be done if the postcard has a `send_date` and the `send_date` has not yet passed. [See docs here](https://docs.lob.com/#tag/Postcards/operation/postcard_delete).",
    version: "0.0.2",
    type: "action",
    props: {
        lob,
        postcardId: {
            propDefinition: [
                lob,
                "postcardId",
            ],
        },
    },
    async run({ $ }) {
        const response = await this.lob.cancelPostcard(this.postcardId);
        $.export("$summary", "Successfully canceled postcard");
        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
Lob	`lob`	`app`	This component uses the Lob app.
Postcard	`postcardId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Action Authentication#

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

Enter your Live Lob secret API key below.

You can find this key under your account settings in the Lob dashboard.

Alternatively, you can use your Test Secret API Key, but you'll need to create a new Lob Connected Account in Pipedream in order to make Live requests.
