Surveybot Overview#

The Surveybot API is a tool designed to enhance engagement and gather insights through conversational surveys within Facebook Messenger. By leveraging Pipedream's capabilities, you can automate responses, analyze survey data, and integrate with an array of other services such as CRMs, email marketing platforms, or helpdesk software to streamline workflows and act upon the gathered data effectively.

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
Surveybot	`surveybot`	`app`	This component uses the Surveybot app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Survey ID	`surveyId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

On the Surveybot dashboard, click the profile pic on the top right, then Account Settings, and Data API in the menu that appears on the left. Enter your password in the API Key section to display your API Key.

Typeform Overview#

The Typeform API furnishes you with the means to create dynamic forms and collect user responses in real-time. By leveraging this API within Pipedream's serverless platform, you can automate workflows to process this data, integrate seamlessly with other services, and react to form submissions instantaneously. This empowers you to craft tailored responses, synchronize with databases, trigger email campaigns, or even manage event registrations without manual intervention.

Action Code#

import typeform from "../../typeform.app.mjs";
import utils from "../utils.mjs";

const { reduceProperties } = utils;

export default {
  key: "typeform-create-form",
  name: "Create a Form",

    openWorldHint: true,
    readOnlyHint: false,

  props: {
    typeform,
    title: {
      propDefinition: [
        typeform,
        "title",
      ],
    },
    workspaceHref: {
      propDefinition: [
        typeform,
        "workspaceHref",
      ],
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const initialProps = {
      title: this.title,
    };

    const additionalProps = {
      workspace: [
        {
          href: this.workspaceHref,
        },
        this.workspaceHref,
      ],
    };

    const data = reduceProperties({
      initialProps,
      additionalProps,
    });

    const resp = await this.typeform.createForm({
      $,
      data,
    });

    $.export("$summary", `Successfully created a new form, "${resp.title}"`);

    return resp;
  },
};

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
Typeform	`typeform`	`app`	This component uses the Typeform app.
Title	`title`	`string`	Title to use for the typeform
Workspace	`workspaceHref`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Action Authentication#

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

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