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 for each message posted to one or more channels
Version:0.0.12
Key:discord_bot-new-message-in-channel

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.

Trigger 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.

Action

Description:Create a new domain. [See the docs here](https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/api-reference/#operation/create_domain)
Version:0.0.1
Key:digital_ocean-create-domain

Digital Ocean Overview

You can use the Digital Ocean API to manage Droplets (virtual private servers),
resources within those Droplets, and other account-wide resources like domains
and images.

Examples of what you can build using the Digital Ocean API include:

  • A script to create and destroy Droplets on demand
  • A script to snapshot (back up) your Droplets on a regular basis
  • A script to add and remove SSH keys from your account
  • A script to manage domain records (DNS)
  • A script to add and remove Floating IPs from your account

The name of the domain itself. This should follow the standard domain format of domain.TLD. For instance, example.com is a valid domain name.

Ip addressipAddressstring

This optional attribute may contain an IP address. When provided, an A record will be automatically created pointing to the apex domain.

Action Authentication

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

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