RescueTime Overview#

The RescueTime API provides access to detailed data about how you spend your time on digital devices, including time spent on apps and websites. With this API on Pipedream, you can create custom workflows that trigger actions based on your productivity data. For instance, you can set up alerts for excessive social media usage or automate weekly productivity reports. Pipedream's platform enables these automations by connecting RescueTime to hundreds of other apps, allowing for intricate workflows that can enhance personal productivity and time management.

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
RescueTime	`rescuetime`	`app`	This component uses the RescueTime app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.

Google Drive Overview#

The Google Drive API on Pipedream allows you to automate various file management tasks, such as creating, reading, updating, and deleting files within your Google Drive. You can also share files, manage permissions, and monitor changes to files and folders. This opens up possibilities for creating workflows that seamlessly integrate with other apps and services, streamlining document handling, backup processes, and collaborative workflows.
