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
Podio	`app`	`app`	This component uses the Podio app.
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.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Organization ID	`orgId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Space ID	`spaceId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
App ID	`appId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

global:all
