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 Incoming SMS on Bandwidth

Description:Emits an event each time a `message-received` event is received at the source url

Version:1.1.0

Key:bandwidth-new-incoming-sms

Bandwidth Overview#

The Bandwidth API opens up a world of possibilities for integrating telecom services into your applications. Bandwidth specializes in voice, messaging, and 911 access, making it possible to programmatically send and receive text messages, orchestrate calls, and implement emergency call routing. Linking the Bandwidth API with Pipedream allows you to automate these telecom features with various triggers and actions from other apps, creating seamless and powerful workflows.

Trigger Code#

const bandwidth = require("../../bandwidth.app");

module.exports = {
  name: "New Incoming SMS",
  description: "Emits an event each time a `message-received` event is received at the source url",
  key: "bandwidth-new-incoming-sms",
  version: "1.1.0",
  props: {
    bandwidth,
    http: {
      type: "$.interface.http",
      customResponse: true,
    },
  },

  async run(event) {
    const messageBody = event.body[0];
    this.http.respond({
      status: 204,
    });

    if (messageBody.message.direction == "in") {
      this.$emit(messageBody, {
        summary: "Message Received",
        id: messageBody.message.id,
        ts: +new Date(messageBody.time),
      });
    }
  },
};

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
Bandwidth	`bandwidth`	`app`	This component uses the Bandwidth 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.

Trigger Authentication#

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

Bandwidth.com requires the user's username:password pair to be encoded as part of the header. (docs)
The accountId is used as part of the url to make API requests. Ex: https://dashboard.bandwidth.com/api/accounts/{accountId}/

Action#

Send any HTTP Request on HTTP / Webhook

Description:Send an HTTP request using any method and URL. Optionally configure query string parameters, headers, and basic auth.

Version:1.1.1

Key:http-custom-request

HTTP / Webhook Overview#

Build, test, and send HTTP requests without code using your Pipedream workflows. The HTTP / Webhook action is a tool to build HTTP requests with a Postman-like graphical interface.

Point and click HTTP requests

Define the target URL, HTTP verb, headers, query parameters, and payload body without writing custom code.

$A screenshot of Pipedream's HTTP Request Configuration interface with a GET request type selected. The request URL is set to 'https://api.openai.com/v1/models'. The 'Auth' tab is highlighted, indicating that authentication is required for this request. In the headers section, there are two headers configured: 'User-Agent' is set to 'pipedream/1', and 'Authorization' is set to 'Bearer {{openai_api_key}}', showing how the OpenAI account's API key is dynamically inserted into the headers to handle authentication automatically.$

Here's an example workflow that uses the HTTP / Webhook action to send an authenticated API request to OpenAI.

Focus on integrating, not authenticating

This action can also use your connected accounts with third-party APIs. Selecting an integrated app will automatically update the request’s headers to authenticate with the app properly, and even inject your token dynamically.

Pipedream integrates with thousands of APIs, but if you can’t find a Pipedream integration simply use Environment Variables in your request headers to authenticate with.

Compatible with no code actions or Node.js and Python

The HTTP/Webhook action exports HTTP response data for use in subsequent workflow steps, enabling easy data transformation, further API calls, database storage, and more.

Response data is available for both coded (Node.js, Python) and no-code steps within your workflow.

Action Code#

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

export default {
  key: "http-custom-request",
  name: "Send any HTTP Request",
  description: "Send an HTTP request using any method and URL. Optionally configure query string parameters, headers, and basic auth.",
  type: "action",
  version: "1.1.1",
  props: {
    http,
    httpRequest: {
      propDefinition: [
        http,
        "httpRequest",
      ],
    },
    includeHeaders: {
      type: "boolean",
      label: "Include Response Headers",
      description: "Optionally export the full response headers",
      optional: true,
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const response = await this.httpRequest.execute();

    if (this.includeHeaders) {
      $.export("headers", response.headers);
    }

    return response;
  },
};
