      const {
        amznTraceId,
        SaleID,
        SaleOrderNumber,
      } = payload;

      const compositeId = `${SaleID}-${amznTraceId}`;

      return {
        id: compositeId,
        summary: `A new sale order with OrderNumber: ${SaleOrderNumber} was successfully authorized!`,
        ts: Date.now(),
      };
    },
  },
};

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
DEAR Systems	`dear`	`app`	This component uses the DEAR Systems app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
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#

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

To use the API you will need your DEAR Account ID and API Application key. These can be created on the API setup page inside DEAR Inventory application.

Microsoft Outlook Calendar Overview#

The Microsoft Outlook Calendar API provides programmatic access to a user's calendar events, allowing for the creation, retrieval, update, and deletion of events within Outlook calendars. With Pipedream, you can integrate these calendar operations into workflows that automate tasks involving scheduling, event management, and coordination with other services. Whether it's triggering actions when new events are created, syncing calendar events with other scheduling tools, or managing attendees, Pipedream's serverless platform enables you to build custom automations with minimal overhead.

Action Authentication#

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

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