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#

New Document Processed (With List Items) on Parseur

Description:Emit new event when a new document is processed with list items. The payload format is the same as when viewing the document and clicking on `view as JSON`. [See the docs](https://help.parseur.com/en/articles/3566155-send-parsed-data-using-webhooks).

Parseur Overview#

Parseur is a powerful email parsing tool that automates the extraction of data from emails and documents. With its API, you can unlock the data trapped in emails and documents and transform it into structured data. On Pipedream, you can use Parseur to trigger workflows from parsed email data, connecting it to hundreds of other services for endless automation possibilities. This can streamline business processes like lead management, invoice processing, and data entry by automating the extraction and flow of critical information.

Trigger Code#

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

    ...common.methods,
    getEventName() {
      return events.DOCUMENT_PROCESSED;
    },
    generateMeta() {
      const ts = Date.now();
      return {
        id: ts,
        summary: "New Document Processed",
        ts,
      };
    },
  },
};

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
Parseur	`app`	`app`	This component uses the Parseur 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.
Parser ID	`parserId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

Parseur API uses a token-based authentication.
You will find your API Token Key in your Account Overview.

About Parseur#

Google Sheets Overview#

The Google Sheets API allows for the creation, reading, updating, and deletion of data within Google Sheets, enabling a robust platform for spreadsheet management and data manipulation. Through Pipedream, you can craft serverless workflows that respond to various triggers, such as webhook events, emails, or scheduled times, to interact with Google Sheets. This synergy can automate reporting, synchronize data across applications, manage inventory, track leads in a CRM, or even conduct survey analysis by updating and retrieving sheet data on the fly.
