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.

New Submission Received on Basin

Description:Emit new event on each new form submission received.

Version:0.0.1

Key:basin-new-submission-received

Basin Overview#

The Basin API provides a powerful platform for automating form submissions, gathering feedback, and conducting surveys with ease. By leveraging the Pipedream's serverless execution model, you can trigger workflows in response to new form submissions, process and analyze the data, and take action in countless other apps. Whether you're routing form data to a CRM, generating support tickets, or synthesizing customer insights, Basin on Pipedream simplifies these tasks with its event-driven architecture and seamless integrations.

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
Basin	`basin`	`app`	This component uses the Basin app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`

Trigger Authentication#

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

Go to the Dashboard for your form and then select the 'Integrations' tab. Each form has it's own API key.

About Basin#
