Formbricks Overview#

Formbricks is a flexible tool for building forms that can integrate seamlessly into any website. The API allows for rich interactions with the forms you create, enabling you to automate the gathering and processing of data. By plugging the Formbricks API into Pipedream, you can harness serverless workflows to react to form submissions in real-time, store responses, or trigger a multitude of actions across different platforms. Think of it as empowering your forms to communicate and act on the data without manual intervention.

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
Formbricks	`formbricks`	`app`	This component uses the Formbricks app.
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.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Survey IDs	`surveyIds`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

Google Drive Overview#

The Google Drive API on Pipedream allows you to automate various file management tasks, such as creating, reading, updating, and deleting files within your Google Drive. You can also share files, manage permissions, and monitor changes to files and folders. This opens up possibilities for creating workflows that seamlessly integrate with other apps and services, streamlining document handling, backup processes, and collaborative workflows.

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

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

https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive
