GitHub Overview#

The GitHub API is a powerful gateway to interaction with GitHub's vast web of data and services, offering a suite of endpoints to manipulate and retrieve information on repositories, pull requests, issues, and more. Harnessing this API on Pipedream, you can orchestrate automated workflows that respond to events in real-time, manage repository data, streamline collaborative processes, and connect GitHub with other services for a more integrated development lifecycle.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "github-new-gist",
  name: "New Gist",
  description: "Emit new events when new gists are created by the authenticated user. [See the documentatoion](https://docs.github.com/en/rest/gists/gists?apiVersion=2022-11-28#list-gists-for-the-authenticated-user)",
  version: "0.2.1",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    async getItems() {
      return this.github.getGists();
    },
    getItemMetadata(item) {
      return {
        summary: `New gist: ${item.id}`,
        ts: Date.parse(item.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
GitHub	`github`	`app`	This component uses the GitHub app.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

Amazon SES Overview#

Amazon Simple Email Service (SES) is a powerful cloud-based email sending service designed to help digital marketers and application developers send marketing, notification, and transactional emails. With the SES API, you can reliably send emails at scale, manage sender reputations, view email sending statistics, and maintain a high deliverability rate. Leveraging Pipedream's capabilities, you can integrate SES seamlessly into serverless workflows, automate email responses based on triggers from other apps, and analyze the effectiveness of your email campaigns by connecting to data analytics platforms.
