Jotform Overview#

Jotform’s API is a powerhouse for automating form and survey data management. With Pipedream, harness this API to trigger workflows from new form submissions, manipulate and analyze your form data, and sync it across various platforms. Think streamlined data entry to CRMs, instant notifications for new leads or feedback, and timely data backups to cloud storage.

Slack Bot Overview#

The Slack Bot API allows you to build rich, interactive bots for Slack workspaces. These bots can respond to messages, post updates, and interact with users in various ways. With the Slack Bot API on Pipedream, developers can create automated workflows that trigger on specific events in Slack, such as new messages or reactions, and then perform defined actions, like sending data to other apps or processing the information within Pipedream's serverless platform. This tight integration with Pipedream enables both simple and complex automations, leveraging Pipedream's ability to connect with numerous apps and its powerful built-in code steps.

Action Code#

import component from "../../../slack/actions/find-user-by-email/find-user-by-email.mjs";
import utils from "../../common/utils.mjs";

/* eslint-disable pipedream/required-properties-type */
/* eslint-disable pipedream/required-properties-name */

export default {
  ...component,
  props: utils.buildAppProps({
    component,
  }),
  key: "slack_bot-find-user-by-email",
  description: "Find a user by matching against their email (Bot). [See the documentation](https://api.slack.com/methods/users.lookupByEmail)",
  version: "0.0.4",
};

Action Configuration#

Action Authentication#

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