Guru Overview#

The Guru API on Pipedream enables the automation of knowledge sharing and management tasks within your team or organization. Using this API, you can programmatically interact with Guru's knowledge base, including retrieving card details, creating new cards, and updating existing content. By leveraging Pipedream's serverless platform, you can craft workflows that trigger based on events from other services, process the data, and perform actions in Guru to keep your team's knowledge up to date and accessible.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/base.mjs";
import sampleEmit from "./test-event.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "guru-new-card-instant",
  name: "New Card Created (Instant)",
  description: "Emit new event when a new card is published. [See the documentation](https://developer.getguru.com/docs/creating-a-webhook)",
  version: "0.0.1",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getEventType() {
      return "card-created";
    },
    getSummary(body) {
      return `New Card: ${body.properties.cardId}`;
    },
  },
  sampleEmit,
};

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

Trigger Authentication#

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

Guru requires their users enter their Guru login email in order to connect to their API.

To retrieve your API keys,

Navigate to your Guru account and sign in
Go to ”Team Settings” > “Apps and Integrations” > ”API Access”

Motive uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Motive account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Motive and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Motive API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
