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.

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}/
