Salesforce Overview#

The Salesforce (REST API) provides a powerful platform for creating and managing customer relationships with a wide array of features like data manipulation, querying, and complex automation. With Pipedream's serverless execution, you can create workflows that automate your sales processes, sync data with other platforms, enhance customer engagement, and trigger actions based on specific events. Dive into Salesforce data, streamline lead management, track customer interactions, and push or pull data to or from Salesforce seamlessly.

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
Salesforce	`salesforce`	`app`	This component uses the Salesforce app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Object Type	`objectType`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

Geokeo Overview#

The Geokeo API offers geolocation services, enabling users to fetch location data based on IP addresses, perform geocoding, and reverse geocoding. With these capabilities, you can enhance applications by integrating dynamic location-based features, from auto-filling addresses to analyzing geographic data. In Pipedream, this API can be particularly powerful for automating workflows that depend on geographical information, such as customizing user experiences based on location, automating location-triggered alerts, or aggregating geographic data for analytics.

Action Code#

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

export default {
  key: "geokeo-forward-geocoding",
  name: "Forward Geocoding",
  description: "Convert address data into geographic coordinates. [See the documentation](https://geokeo.com/documentation.php#request-forward-geocoding)",
  version: "0.0.1",
  type: "action",
  props: {
    app,
    q: {
      propDefinition: [
        app,
        "q",
      ],
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const response = await this.app.forwardGeocoding({
      $,
      params: {
        q: this.q,
      },
    });

    $.export("$summary", `${response.results.length} results found`);

    return response;
  },
};

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
Geokeo	`app`	`app`	This component uses the Geokeo app.
Query	`q`	`string`	The query can have up to 50 characters

Action Authentication#

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