LoopMessage Overview#

The LoopMessage API offers you the ability to send, receive, and manage messages within your applications. Through Pipedream's integration, you can harness this API to automate communication processes, organize message flows, and even connect to various data sources or other APIs to create complex messaging workflows. With Pipedream, you can trigger actions based on events, schedule messages, and interact with users in real-time without managing servers or infrastructure.

Trigger Code#

import app from "../../loopmessage.app.mjs";

export default {
  key: "loopmessage-new-alert-received",
  name: "New Alert Received (Instant)",
  description: "Emit new event when an alert is received via webhook. [See the documentation](https://docs.loopmessage.com/imessage-conversation-api/messaging/webhooks)",

  props: {
    app,

    http: {
      type: "$.interface.http",
      customResponse: true,
    },
    alertType: {
      propDefinition: [
        app,
        "alertType",
      ],
    },
  },
  async run({ body }) {
    this.$emit(body, {
      id: body.webhook_id,
      summary: `New Alert From ${body.sender_name}`,
      ts: Date.parse(body.created_at),
    });

    this.http.respond({
      status: 200,
    });
  },
};

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
LoopMessage	`app`	`app`	This component uses the LoopMessage app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.interface.http` to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the `run()` method of the component.
Alert Type	`alertType`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`{ "label": "Message Scheduled", "value": "message_scheduled" }{ "label": "Conversation Initiated", "value": "conversation_inited" }{ "label": "Message Failed", "value": "message_failed" }{ "label": "Message Sent", "value": "message_sent" }{ "label": "Message Inbound", "value": "message_inbound" }{ "label": "Message Reaction", "value": "message_reaction" }{ "label": "Message Timeout", "value": "message_timeout" }{ "label": "Group Created", "value": "group_created" }{ "label": "Inbound Call", "value": "inbound_call" }{ "label": "Unknown Event", "value": "unknown" }`

Trigger Authentication#

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

Cisco Webex Overview#

The Cisco Webex API allows developers to integrate their applications with Cisco's robust collaboration tools, creating a workflow of communication within teams and automating various aspects of the meeting lifecycle, from scheduling to follow-up actions. With this API, you can streamline meeting setups, fetch detailed information about participants and meetings, send messages to spaces (rooms), and manage your Webex resources programmatically. Leveraging Pipedream's capabilities, you can connect these features with other apps to automate complex tasks, analyze meeting data, enhance productivity, and maintain a well-organized communication ecosystem.

Action Authentication#

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

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

spark:allspark-admin:people_readspark-admin:people_writespark:devices_readspark:devices_write
