Airtable Overview#

Airtable (OAuth) API on Pipedream allows you to manipulate and leverage your Airtable data in a myriad of powerful ways. Sync data between Airtable and other apps, trigger workflows on updates, or process bulk data operations asynchronously. By using Airtable's structured databases with Pipedream's serverless platform, you can craft custom automation solutions, integrate with other services seamlessly, and streamline complex data processes.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  name: "New or Modified Field",
  description: "Emit new event for each new or modified field in a table",
  key: "airtable_oauth-new-or-modified-field",
  version: "0.0.7",
  type: "source",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
    tableId: {
      propDefinition: [
        common.props.airtable,
        "tableId",
        ({ baseId }) => ({
          baseId,
        }),
      ],
      description: "The table ID to watch for changes.",
    },
  },
  methods: {
    _getPrevFields() {
      return this.db.get("fieldIds") || {};
    },
    _setPrevFields(fieldIds) {
      this.db.set("fieldIds", fieldIds);
    },
  },
  async run() {
    const prevFields = this._getPrevFields();

    const { tables } = await this.airtable.listTables({
      baseId: this.baseId,
    });
    const { fields } = tables.find(({ id }) => id === this.tableId);

    for (const field of fields) {
      if (prevFields[field.id] && prevFields[field.id] === JSON.stringify(field)) {
        continue;
      }
      const summary = prevFields[field.id]
        ? `${field.name} Updated`
        : `${field.name} Created`;
      prevFields[field.id] = JSON.stringify(field);

      this.$emit(field, {
        id: field.id,
        summary,
        ts: Date.now(),
      });
    }

    this._setPrevFields(prevFields);
  },
};

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
Airtable	`airtable`	`app`	This component uses the Airtable app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Base	`baseId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Table	`tableId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

data.records:readdata.records:writedata.recordComments:readdata.recordComments:writeschema.bases:readschema.bases:writewebhook:manageuser.email:read

PublisherKit Overview#

The PublisherKit API offers a suite of tools for digital content management, including the ability to manage and distribute various multimedia content like articles, videos, and podcasts. Integrating this API with Pipedream allows you to automate content workflows, sync data across platforms, and react to events in real-time. For instance, you could automatically publish scheduled content, analyze content performance, or update cross-platform content statuses.
