GitLab Overview#

The GitLab API provides programmatic access to your GitLab projects, allowing you to automate common tasks, manage issues, merge requests, and more. With the GitLab API on Pipedream, you can create customized workflows that integrate with other services, streamline your development process, and enhance project management. By leveraging the power of serverless, you can set up triggers for GitLab events and perform actions across a variety of apps without managing infrastructure.

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
GitLab	`gitlab`	`app`	This component uses the GitLab 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.
Project ID	`projectId`	`integer`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

iContact Overview#

The iContact API provides a programmable way to manage email marketing campaigns, contacts, lists, and messages within iContact's service. Through this API, you can automate the creation and sending of emails, manage subscribers, and track the performance of your campaigns. When used on Pipedream, the iContact API allows you to create serverless workflows that integrate with other apps and services, trigger actions based on various conditions, and automate repetitive tasks.
