New Action Created on Pushcut

Description:Emit new event when a new action is created.

Version:0.0.1

Key:pushcut-action-created

Pushcut Overview#

The Pushcut API enables the automation of iOS notifications with custom actions, triggering events based on various conditions. On Pipedream, you can harness this functionality to create intricate workflows, combining Pushcut notifications with a multitude of services to act based on data from APIs, schedules, or other apps. Think of Pushcut as a bridge between the real world and your digital tasks, letting you know when to act and offering shortcuts to execute specific automations directly from your iOS devices.

Trigger Code#

import pushcut from "../../pushcut.app.mjs";
import { DEFAULT_POLLING_SOURCE_TIMER_INTERVAL } from "@pipedream/platform";

export default {
  key: "pushcut-action-created",
  name: "New Action Created",
  description: "Emit new event when a new action is created.",
  version: "0.0.1",
  type: "source",

  props: {
    pushcut,
    timer: {
      type: "$.interface.timer",
      default: {
        intervalSeconds: DEFAULT_POLLING_SOURCE_TIMER_INTERVAL,
      },
    },
    actionType: {
      type: "string",
      label: "Type",
      description: "Type of new action to watch for",

  async run() {
    const actions = this.actionType === "shortcut"
      ? await this.pushcut.listShortcuts()
      : await this.pushcut.listHomekitScenes();
    for (const action of actions) {
      const meta = this.generateMeta(action);
      this.$emit(action, meta);
    }
  },
};

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
Pushcut	`pushcut`	`app`	This component uses the Pushcut app.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Type	`actionType`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`shortcuthomekit`

Trigger Authentication#

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

To generate your API Key,

Navigate to your Pushcut account and sign in
Go to “Account”
Click the “Add API Key” button

PostgreSQL Overview#

On Pipedream, you can leverage the PostgreSQL app to create workflows that automate database operations, synchronize data across platforms, and react to database events in real-time. Think handling new row entries, updating records from webhooks, or even compiling reports on a set schedule. Pipedream's serverless platform provides a powerful way to connect PostgreSQL with a variety of apps, enabling you to create tailored automation that fits your specific needs.

Connecting to Restricted Databases

Either enable the shared static IP for this account below, or configure a VPC to deploy any workflow in your workspace to a private network with a dedicated static IP. Learn more in our docs.

SSL Setup

Configure SSL on your PostgreSQL database by providing the CA (Certificate Authority), and choosing between Full Verification, Verify Certificate Authority (CA), or Skip Verification. Skipping verification is not recommended as this has serious security implications.
