Getting Started#

This integration creates a workflow with a elmah.io trigger and GitHub action. When you configure and deploy the workflow, it will run on Pipedream's servers 24x7 for free.

Select this integration
Configure the New Error trigger
1. Connect your elmah.io account
2. Configure timer
3. Select a Log ID
Configure the Create Branch action
1. Connect your GitHub account
2. Select a Repository
3. Configure Branch Name
4. Optional- Select a Source Branch
Deploy the workflow
Send a test event to validate your setup
Turn on the trigger

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.

elmah.io Overview#

The elmah.io API allows developers to automate error logging and management in their applications. By using this API, you can create robust monitoring systems that capture, analyze, and notify you of any application errors in real-time. Integrating elmah.io with Pipedream opens up possibilities for streamlining incident responses, correlating errors with system metrics, and improving application stability through automated workflows. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can connect elmah.io to numerous other services to enhance your error management processes.

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
elmah.io	`elmah_io`	`app`	This component uses the elmah.io app.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Log ID	`logId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

API keys are located on the organization settings page.

To open organization settings, click the gears icon next to your organization name on either the left menu or through the dashboard:

When on the organization settings page, click the API Keys tab and copy or generate your API key.

GitHub Overview#

The GitHub API is a powerful gateway to interaction with GitHub's vast web of data and services, offering a suite of endpoints to manipulate and retrieve information on repositories, pull requests, issues, and more. Harnessing this API on Pipedream, you can orchestrate automated workflows that respond to events in real-time, manage repository data, streamline collaborative processes, and connect GitHub with other services for a more integrated development lifecycle.

Action Code#

Action Authentication#

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

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