Google Forms Overview#

The Google Forms API lets you programmatically access and manipulate your forms and responses. In Pipedream, integrating Google Forms can automate mundane tasks, sync form data with other services, and trigger actions based on submission events. You can create, edit, and collaborate on forms, and analyze responses in real-time combined with Pipedream's serverless platform to create powerful workflows.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...base,
  key: "google_forms-new-form-answer-update",
  name: "New Form Answer Update",
  description: "Emit a new event when an answer is sent or updated. [See the documentation](https://developers.google.com/forms/api/reference/rest/v1/forms.responses/list)",
  version: "0.0.1",
  dedupe: "last",
  type: "source",
  methods: {
    ...base.methods,
    generateMeta(response) {
      console.log(response);
      return {
        id: new Date(response.lastSubmittedTime).getTime(),
        summary: "New Answer Update",
      };
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const lastSubmittedTime = this.getLastSubmittedTime();
    const { responses } = await this.googleForms.listFormResponses({
      formId: this.formId,
      $,
      params: {
        filter: lastSubmittedTime && `timestamp >= ${lastSubmittedTime}`,
      },
    });
    if (!responses || !Array.isArray(responses)) {
      return;
    }
    const responseSorted = this.sortResponses(responses);
    this.setLastSubmittedTime(
      responseSorted.length && responseSorted[0].lastSubmittedTime,
    );
    this.emitResponses(responseSorted.reverse());
  },
};

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
Google Forms	`googleForms`	`app`	This component uses the Google Forms app.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.

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.
