Google Cloud Overview#

The Google Cloud API opens a world of possibilities for enhancing cloud operations and automating tasks. It empowers you to manage, scale, and fine-tune various services within the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) programmatically. With Pipedream, you can harness this power to create intricate workflows, trigger cloud functions based on events from other apps, manage resources, and analyze data, all in a serverless environment. The ability to interconnect GCP services with numerous other apps enriches automation, making it easier to synchronize data, streamline development workflows, and deploy applications efficiently.

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
Google Cloud	`googleCloud`	`app`	This component uses the Google Cloud 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.
Type	`topicType`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`existingnew`

Trigger Authentication#

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

CoinMarketCap Overview#

The CoinMarketCap API delivers real-time and historical cryptocurrency market data, including price, volume, market cap, and much more, for over 9,000 cryptocurrencies. With this data, you can track crypto trends, compare currency performance, or integrate up-to-date information into apps, widgets, or websites. Pipedream's platform enables developers to create automated workflows that can harness the vast array of data from CoinMarketCap to trigger actions, notify stakeholders, or power analytics dashboards.
