ShipStation Overview#

The ShipStation API allows for streamlined management of shipping operations for e-commerce. With it, you can automate order processing, label creation, and tracking updates. Pipedream excels as a platform for integrating ShipStation with other services to create custom workflows.

Trigger Code#

import base from "../common/base.mjs";

export default {
  ...base,
  key: "shipstation-new-event",
  name: "New Event (Instant)",
  description: "Emit new event for each new webhook event received. [See docs here](https://www.shipstation.com/docs/api/webhooks/subscribe/)",
  version: "0.0.1",
  type: "source",
  methods: {
    ...base.methods,
    async emitEvent(event) {
      const { body } = event;

      const resource = await this.shipstation.getResourceByUrl({
        url: body.resource_url,
      });

      const ts = new Date();

      this.$emit(resource, {
        id: ts,
        summary: `New event ${ts.getTime()} received`,
        ts,
      });
    },
  },
};

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
ShipStation	`shipstation`	`app`	This component uses the ShipStation app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
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.
Event Type	`eventType`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`{ "label": "On New Orders", "value": "ORDER_NOTIFY" }{ "label": "On New Items", "value": "ITEM_ORDER_NOTIFY" }{ "label": "On Orders Shipped", "value": "SHIP_NOTIFY" }{ "label": "On Items Shipped", "value": "ITEM_SHIP_NOTIFY" }`
Store	`storeId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

The ShipStation API uses Basic HTTP authentication. Use your ShipStation API Key as the username and API Secret as the password. You can find your API Key under Settings.

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.

Action Code#

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

export default {

    },
    values: {
      propDefinition: [

  async run({ $ }) {

      values = [],
    } = this;

    if (!Array.isArray(values)) {
      throw new Error("No valid values provided. The values property must be an array.");
    }

    if (this.values) {
      const numberOfValues = query?.match(/\$/g)?.length || 0;
      if (values.length !== numberOfValues) {
        throw new Error("The number of values provided does not match the number of values in the query.");
      }
    }

    if (!query.toLowerCase().includes("select")) {
      throw new Error("Need be a `SELECT` statement query. Read more about [SELECT queries here](https://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_select.asp)");
    }

    try {
      const res = await this.postgresql.executeQuery({
        text: query,
        values,
      });
      $.export("$summary", "Successfully executed query");
      return res;
    } catch (error) {
      let errorMsg = "Query not executed due to an error. ";
      errorMsg += `${error}`.includes("SSL verification failed")
        ? "This could be because SSL verification failed. To resolve this, reconnect your account and set SSL Verification Mode: Skip Verification, and try again."
        : `${error}`;
      throw new Error(errorMsg);
    }
  },
};

Action Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
PostgreSQL	`postgresql`	`app`	This component uses the PostgreSQL app.
SQL Query	`query`	`string`	Your custom SQL Query using `$1`, `$2`... to represent values (eg. `INSERT INTO users(name, email) VALUES($1, $2)`
Values	`values`	`string[]`	List of values represented in your SQL Query above

Action Authentication#

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

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.
