Description:Emit new submission
Version:0.0.8
Key:typeform-new-submission

Typeform Overview

With the Typeform API, you can easily create beautiful, interactive forms that
allow people to share their information with you in an engaging way. Here are
some examples of what you can build with the Typeform API:

  • A contact form for your website that allows people to easily get in touch
    with you
  • An order form for your product or service that allows people to place orders
    easily and securely
  • A survey form that allows you to collect data and feedback from people
  • A registration form for your event or conference that allows people to sign
    up easily and securely

Trigger Authentication

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

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

Key:discord_bot-create-user-dm

Discord Bot Overview

The Pipedream Discord app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Discord API. When you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your guilds, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Discord actions, or write your own code against the Discord API.

Action Code

import common from "../../common.mjs";
import messageCommon from "../send-message-common.mjs";
import utils from "../../common/utils.mjs";

const { discord } = common.props;

export default {
  key: "discord_bot-create-user-dm",
  name: "Create DM",

    userId: {
      propDefinition: [

          guildId,
        }),
      ],
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const createDMChannelResponse = await this.discord.createDm({
      $,
      recipientId: this.userId,
    });
    if (createDMChannelResponse.id) {
      const createMessageResponse = await this.discord.createMessage({
        $,
        channelId: createDMChannelResponse.id,
        data: {
          embeds: utils.parseObject(this.embeds),
          avatarURL: this.avatarURL,
          threadID: this.threadID,
          username: this.username,
          content: this.includeSentViaPipedream
            ? this.appendPipedreamText(this.message)
            : this.message,
        },
      });
      $.export("$summary", "Message has been sent successfully");
      return createMessageResponse;
    } else {
      $.export("$summary", "Could not create or retrieve DM channel!");
      throw new Error("Create DM Channel call was not successful!");
    }
  },
};

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.

LabelPropTypeDescription
Discord BotdiscordappThis component uses the Discord Bot app.
GuildguildIdstringSelect a value from the drop down menu.
Messagemessagestring

Enter a simple message up to 2000 characters. This is the most commonly used field. However, it's optional if you pass embed content.

Embedsembedsany

Embedded rich content (up to 6000 characters), this should be given as an array, e.g. [{"title": "Hello, Embed!","description": "This is an embedded message."}]. To pass data from another step, enter a reference using double curly brackets (e.g., {{steps.mydata.$return_value}}). Tip: Construct the embeds array in a Node.js code step, return it, and then pass the return value to this step.

Thread IDthreadIDstring

If provided, the message will be posted to this thread

Usernameusernamestring

Overrides the current username

Avatar URLavatarURLstring

If used, it overrides the default avatar

Include link to workflowincludeSentViaPipedreamboolean

Defaults to true, includes a link to this workflow at the end of your Discord message.

UseruserIdstringSelect a value from the drop down menu.

Action Authentication

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

This app allows you to use the Discord API using your own Discord bot. If you don't want to use a custom bot, and you just need to use the Discord API, exit this screen and use the Discord app, instead.


If you want to use your own Discord bot, but haven't created one yet, see these instructions or watch this video. You'll need to add this bot to your server(s) to make successful API requests.

Once you've created your bot, you'll find the Bot token within the Bot section of your app. Enter that token below.
