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#

New Contact on MixMax

Description:Emit new event when a new contact is created. [See docs here](https://developer.mixmax.com/reference/contacts)

Version:0.0.1

MixMax Overview#

The MixMax API allows you to automate and enhance email productivity tasks within your workflows. Utilizing MixMax with Pipedream, you can create dynamic automation scenarios such as syncing calendar events, triggering email sequences based on customer actions, and analyzing email engagement data. By harnessing the power of Pipedream's serverless platform, you can integrate MixMax with numerous other apps to streamline communication processes, improve response times, and personalize your outreach efforts.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,
  type: "source",
  name: "New Contact",
  key: "mixmax-new-contact",
  description: "Emit new event when a new contact is created. [See docs here](https://developer.mixmax.com/reference/contacts)",
  version: "0.0.1",
  dedupe: "unique",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
  },
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getSummary({
      email, _id,
    }) {
      return `New contact created: ${email} (${_id})`;
    },
    getFunc() {
      return this.mixmax.listContacts;
    },
  },
};

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
MixMax	`mixmax`	`app`	This component uses the MixMax app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Polling interval	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	Pipedream will poll the MixMax API on this schedule

Trigger Authentication#

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

To retrieve your API key,

Navigate to your MixMax account and sign in
Go to “Settings” > “Integrations” > “API”

Clerk Overview#

The Clerk API lets you manage user authentication and create secure, delightful user experiences in your apps. Within Pipedream's serverless platform, you can harness this API to automate workflows that trigger on user events, sync user data across apps, and maintain robust user management without the heavy lifting of building authentication infrastructure from scratch.

Action Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Clerk	`clerk`	`app`	This component uses the Clerk app.
External Id	`externalId`	`string`	The ID of the user as used in your external systems or your previous authentication solution. Must be unique across your instance.
First Name	`firstName`	`string`	The first name to assign to the user.
Last Name	`lastName`	`string`	The last name to assign to the user.
Email Addresses	`emailAddress`	`string[]`	Email addresses to add to the user. Must be unique across your instance. The first email address will be set as the user's primary email address.
Phone Numbers	`phoneNumber`	`string[]`	Phone numbers to add to the user. Must be unique across your instance. The first phone number will be set as user's primary phone number.
Web3 Wallets	`web3Wallet`	`string[]`	Web3 wallets to add to the user. Must be unique across your instance. The first wallet will be set as the user's primary wallet.
Username	`username`	`string`	The username to give to the user. It must be unique across your instance.
Password	`password`	`string`	The plaintext password to give to the user. Must be at least 8 characters long, and can not be in any list of hacked passwords.
Password Digest	`passwordDigest`	`string`	In case you already have the password digests and not the passswords, you can use them for the newly created user via this property. The digests should be generated with one of the supported algorithms. The hashing algorithm can be specified using the `Password Hasher` property.
Password Hasher	`passwordHasher`	`string`	The hashing algorithm that was used to generate the password digest. The algorithms that Clerk supports at the moment are `bcrypt`, `bcrypt_sha256_django`, `md5`, `pbkdf2_sha256`, `pbkdf2_sha256_django`, `phpass`, `scrypt_firebase` and 2 `argon2` variants, `argon2i` and `argon2id`. Each of the above expects the incoming digest to be of a particular format. See the documentarion for further information.
Skip Password Checks	`skipPasswordChecks`	`boolean`	When set to `true` all password checks are skipped. It is recommended to use this method only when migrating plaintext passwords to Clerk. Upon migration the user base should be prompted to pick stronger password.
Skip Password Requirement	`skipPasswordRequirement`	`boolean`	When set to `true`, `password` is not required anymore when creating the user and can be omitted. This is useful when you are trying to create a user that doesn't have a password, in an instance that is using passwords. Please note that you cannot use this flag if password is the only way for a user to sign into your instance.
TOTP Secret	`totpSecret`	`string`	In case TOTP is configured on the instance, you can provide the secret to enable it on the newly created user without the need to reset it.
Backup Codes	`backupCodes`	`string[]`	If Backup Codes are configured on the instance, you can provide them to enable it on the newly created user without the need to reset them. You must provide the backup codes in plain format or the corresponding bcrypt digest.
Public Metadata	`publicMetadata`	`object`	Metadata saved on the user, that is visible to both your Frontend and Backend APIs.
Private Metadata	`privateMetadata`	`object`	Metadata saved on the user, that is only visible to your Backend API.
Unsafe Metadata	`unsafeMetadata`	`object`	Metadata saved on the user, that can be updated from both the Frontend and Backend APIs. `Note: Since this data can be modified from the frontend, it is not guaranteed to be safe.`
Created At	`createdAt`	`string`	A custom date/time denoting when the user signed up to the application, specified in RFC3339 format (e.g. `2012-10-20T07:15:20.902Z`).

Action Authentication#

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