Discord Overview#

The Discord API interacts seamlessly with Pipedream, empowering you to craft customized automations and workflows for your Discord server. With this powerful integration, you can automate tasks like message posting, user management, and notifications, based on a myriad of triggers and actions from different apps. These automations can enhance the Discord experience for community moderators and members, by synchronizing with external tools, organizing community engagement, and streamlining notifications.

Trigger Code#

import discord from "../../discord.app.mjs";
import sampleEmit from "./test-event.mjs";

export default {
  type: "source",
  key: "discord-new-message",
  name: "New Message (Instant)",
  description: "Emit new event for each message posted to one or more channels in a Discord server",
  version: "1.0.3",

  dedupe: "unique",
  props: {
    discord,
    channels: {
      type: "$.discord.channel[]",
      appProp: "discord",
      label: "Channels",
      description: "Select the channel(s) you'd like to be notified for",
    },
    // eslint-disable-next-line pipedream/props-label,pipedream/props-description
    discordApphook: {
      type: "$.interface.apphook",
      appProp: "discord",
      async eventNames() {
        return this.channels || [];
      },
    },
  },
  async run(event) {
    if (event.guildID != this.discord.$auth.guild_id) {
      return;
    }
    this.$emit(event, {
      id: event.id,
    });
  },
  sampleEmit,
};

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
Discord	`discord`	`app`	This component uses the Discord app.
Channels	`channels`	`$.discord.channel[]`	Select the channel(s) you'd like to be notified for
	`discordApphook`	`$.interface.apphook`

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

DevRev Overview#

The DevRev API bridges the gap between developers and customers, enabling teams to interact with customer data, handle support issues, and integrate with various development workflows. Within Pipedream, you can wield this API to automate tasks like syncing customer feedback with your issue trackers, updating CRM records, or triggering custom notifications based on customer interactions.

Action Code#

import devrev from "../../devrev.app.mjs";
import constants from "../../common/constants.mjs";

export default {
  key: "devrev-create-comment",
  name: "Create Comment",
  description: "Creates a new comment on a work item in DevRev. [See the documentation](https://devrev.ai/docs/apis/beta-api-spec#/operations/timeline-entries-create)",
  version: "0.0.2",
  type: "action",
  props: {
    devrev,
    workId: {
      propDefinition: [
        devrev,
        "workId",
      ],
    },
    body: {
      propDefinition: [
        devrev,
        "body",
      ],
      description: "The comment's body",
    },
    visibility: {
      type: "string",
      label: "Visibility",
      description: "The visibility of the entry. If `private`, then the entry is only visible to the creator, `internal` is visible with the Dev organization, `external` is visible to the Dev organzation and Rev users, and `public` is visible to all. If not set, then the default visibility is `external`.",
      optional: true,
      options: Object.values(constants.VISIBILITY),
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const data = {
      type: "timeline_comment",
      object: this.workId,
      body: this.body,
      visibility: this.visibility,
    };

    const response = await this.devrev.createComment({
      data,
      $,
    });

    if (response) {
      $.export("$summary", `Successfully created comment with ID ${response.timeline_entry.id}.`);
    }

    return response;
  },
};

Action Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
DevRev	`devrev`	`app`	This component uses the DevRev app.
Work Item	`workId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Body	`body`	`string`	The comment's body
Visibility	`visibility`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`externalinternalprivatepublic`

Action Authentication#

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

Generate a Personal Access Token (PAT)

In the DevRev app, go to the relevant dev org.
Go to Settings > Account > Personal Access Token.
Click New token and follow the workflow to create your PAT.

As the token value is not retrievable later, we recommend using descriptive names for PATs as it can help you differentiate between multiple PATs.

Copy the PAT and store it securely. Once you go to another page, you cannot retrieve this PAT again.
