Basecamp Overview#

The Basecamp API enables the automation of project management tasks, facilitating seamless interaction with Basecamp's project management tools. Through Pipedream, you can leverage the API to create custom workflows that trigger actions within Basecamp, sync data across various platforms, and enhance team collaboration with automated notifications and task management.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/webhook.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "basecamp-new-comment-created",
  name: "New Comment Created (Instant)",
  description: "Emit new event when a comment is created. [See the docs here](https://github.com/basecamp/bc3-api/blob/master/sections/webhooks.md#create-a-webhook)",
  version: "0.0.7",
  dedupe: "unique",
  type: "source",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getWebhookTypes() {
      return [
        "Comment",
      ];
    },
    getAllowedEvents() {
      return [
        "comment_created",
      ];
    },
  },
};

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
Basecamp	`app`	`app`	This component uses the Basecamp app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Account Id	`accountId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Project Id	`projectId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.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#

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

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