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.

Twilio SendGrid Overview

With the Twilio SendGrid API, you can build a number of features into your
application to manage your SendGrid account and send emails. For example, you
can use the API to:

  • Create and manage SendGrid accounts
  • Send emails through SendGrid
  • Manage email templates
  • Get statistics on email sends
  • And more!

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.
LabelPropTypeDescription
N/Adb$.service.dbThis component uses $.service.db to maintain state between executions.
Twilio SendGridsendgridappThis component uses the Twilio SendGrid app.
N/Ahttp$.interface.httpThis component uses $.interface.http to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the run() method of the component.

Trigger Authentication

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

Action

Description:Create a new channel. [See docs here](https://api.slack.com/methods/conversations.create)
Version:0.0.14
Key:slack-create-channel

Slack Overview

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

The Pipedream Slack app is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.

  • Automate posting updates to your team channels
  • Create a bot to answer common questions
  • Integrate with your existing tools and services
  • And much more!

Action Code

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

export default {
  key: "slack-create-channel",
  name: "Create a Channel",
  description: "Create a new channel. [See docs here](https://api.slack.com/methods/conversations.create)",
  version: "0.0.14",
  type: "action",
  props: {
    slack,
    channelName: {
      label: "Channel name",
      description: "Name of the public or private channel to create",
      type: "string",
    },
    isPrivate: {
      label: "Is private?",
      type: "boolean",
      description: "`false` by default. Pass `true` to create a private channel instead of a public one.",
      default: false,
      optional: true,
    },
  },
  async run() {
    return await this.slack.sdk().conversations.create({
      name: this.channelName,
      is_private: this.isPrivate,
    });
  },
};

false by default. Pass true to create a private channel instead of a public one.

Action Authentication

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

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

bookmarks:writecalls:readcalls:writechannels:historychannels:readchannels:writednd:readdnd:writeemoji:readfiles:readgroups:historygroups:readgroups:writeim:historyim:readim:writelinks:readlinks:writempim:historympim:readmpim:writepins:readpins:writereactions:readreactions:writereminders:readreminders:writeremote_files:readremote_files:sharestars:readstars:writeteam:readusergroups:readusergroups:writeusers:readusers:read.emailusers:writechat:write:botchat:write:usercommandsfiles:write:userusers.profile:writeusers.profile:readsearch:read
