Flutterwave Overview#

The Flutterwave API empowers developers to automate payment processes and integrate various payment services within applications. With this API, you can initiate and receive payments, manage transactions, and access customer data securely. Utilizing Pipedream, you can create workflows that trigger on specific events, process data, and integrate with an array of services without managing servers.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...base,
  key: "flutterwave-new-subscription",
  name: "New Subscription",
  description: "Emit new event when a new subscription is added.",
  version: "0.0.1",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...base.methods,
    getResourceFn() {
      return this.flutterwave.getSubscriptions;
    },
    getParams(lastTs) {
      return lastTs
        ? {
          subscribed_from: this.formatDate(lastTs),
        }
        : {};
    },
    generateMeta(subscription) {
      return {
        id: subscription.id,
        summary: `New Subscription: ${subscription.id}`,
        ts: Date.parse(subscription.created_at),
      };
    },
  },
};

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
Flutterwave	`flutterwave`	`app`	This component uses the Flutterwave app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`

Trigger Authentication#

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

Waitwhile Overview#

Waitwhile is a queue management and scheduling platform that lets you optimize appointments and waitlists, enhancing the customer experience. By leveraging the Waitwhile API on Pipedream, you can automate processes such as updating waitlists, syncing customer data, or triggering notifications when a customer's status changes. This seamless integration can streamline operations for businesses like restaurants, healthcare providers, or service centers where queue management is crucial.
