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 Table on PostgreSQL

Description:Emit new event when a new table is added to the database. [See the documentation](https://node-postgres.com/features/queries)

Version:2.0.5

Key:postgresql-new-table

PostgreSQL Overview#

On Pipedream, you can leverage the PostgreSQL app to create workflows that automate database operations, synchronize data across platforms, and react to database events in real-time. Think handling new row entries, updating records from webhooks, or even compiling reports on a set schedule. Pipedream's serverless platform provides a powerful way to connect PostgreSQL with a variety of apps, enabling you to create tailored automation that fits your specific needs.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,
  name: "New Table",
  key: "postgresql-new-table",
  description: "Emit new event when a new table is added to the database. [See the documentation](https://node-postgres.com/features/queries)",
  version: "2.0.5",
  type: "source",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
    schema: {
      propDefinition: [
        common.props.postgresql,
        "schema",
      ],
    },
  },
  async run() {
    const previousTables = this._getPreviousValues() || [];

    const tables = await this.postgresql.getTables(this.schema);

    const newTables = tables.filter((table) => !previousTables.includes(table));
    for (const table of newTables) {
      const meta = this.generateMeta(table);
      this.$emit(table, meta);
    }

    this._setPreviousValues(tables);
  },
};

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
PostgreSQL	`postgresql`	`app`	This component uses the PostgreSQL app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Polling Interval	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	Pipedream will poll the API on this schedule
Schema	`schema`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

Before you connect to your PostgreSQL database from Pipedream, please make sure your database is either:

Accessible from the public internet (You may need to add a firewall rule on 0.0.0.0/0 on port 5432), or
Accessible from a static IP that you've configured from a VPC in Pipedream, and enabled the workflow to connect through that VPC

SSL Setup

Configure SSL on your PostgreSQL database by providing the CA (Certificate Authority), and choosing between Full Verification (default), or Skip Verification. Skipping verification is not recommended as this has serious security implications.

About PostgreSQL#

PostgreSQL is a free and open-source relational database management system emphasizing extensibility and SQL compliance.

Zoho Books Overview#

Zoho Books API unlocks the potential to automate and streamline accounting tasks by integrating with Pipedream's serverless platform. With this powerful combo, you can automate invoicing, manage your accounts, reconcile bank transactions, and handle contacts and items without manual input. By setting up event-driven workflows, you can ensure data consistency across platforms, trigger notifications, and generate reports, all while saving time and reducing human error.

Action Authentication#

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

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

ZohoBooks.fullaccess.all
