Details#

This integration uses pre-built, source-available components from Pipedream's GitHub repo. These components are developed by Pipedream and the community, and verified and maintained by Pipedream.

To contribute an update to an existing component or create a new component, create a PR on GitHub. If you're new to Pipedream component development, you can start with quickstarts for trigger span and action development, and then review the component API reference.

Trigger#

Watch Folder on pCloud

Description:Emit new event when a file is created or modified in the specified folder.

Version:0.0.4

Key:pcloud-watch-folder

pCloud Overview#

The pCloud API allows for direct interaction with your pCloud account, providing access to files and folders within your cloud storage. With Pipedream, you can automate file management tasks such as uploading, downloading, and synchronizing files. Additionally, you can create workflows to organize your cloud storage, share files with team members, or back up important data from various sources.

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
pCloud	`pcloud`	`app`	This component uses the pCloud app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Polling schedule	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	Pipedream polls pCloud for events on this schedule.
Folder ID	`folderId`	`integer`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Folder Event	`event`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`CreatedModified`
Show Deleted?	`showDeleted`	`boolean`	If true, deleted files and folders that can be undeleted will be displayed.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

Create Page on Notion

Description:Creates a page from a parent page. The only valid property is *title*. [See the documentation](https://developers.notion.com/reference/post-page)

Notion Overview#

Notion's API allows for the creation, reading, updating, and deleting of pages, databases, and their contents within Notion. Using Pipedream's platform, you can build workflows that connect Notion with various other services to automate tasks such as content management, task tracking, and data synchronization. With Pipedream's serverless execution, you can trigger these workflows on a schedule, or by external events from other services, without managing any infrastructure.
