This integration uses pre-built, source-available components from Pipedream's GitHub repo. These components are developed by Pipedream and the community, and verified and maintained by Pipedream.

To contribute an update to an existing component or create a new component, create a PR on GitHub. If you're new to Pipedream component development, you can start with quickstarts for trigger span and action development, and then review the component API reference.

Trigger#

New Updates (Instant) on Google Sheets

Description:Emit new event each time a row or cell is updated in a spreadsheet. To use this source with a spreadsheet in a [Shared Drive](https://support.google.com/a/users/answer/9310351), use the **New Updates (Shared Drive, Instant)** source instead.

Version:0.2.0

Google Sheets Overview#

Some examples of things you can build using the Google Sheets API include:

A web app that lets users input data into a Google Sheet
A script that automatically updates a Google Sheet with data from another
source
A tool that generates graphs and charts from data in a Google Sheet
A service that sends data from a Google Sheet to another API or application

Trigger Code#

import httpBase from "../common/http-based/sheet.mjs";
import sampleEmit from "./test-event.mjs";
import newUpdates from "../common/new-updates.mjs";

export default {
  ...httpBase,
  ...newUpdates,
  key: "google_sheets-new-updates",
  type: "source",
  name: "New Updates (Instant)",
  description: "Emit new event each time a row or cell is updated in a spreadsheet. To use this source with a spreadsheet in a [Shared Drive](https://support.google.com/a/users/answer/9310351), use the **New Updates (Shared Drive, Instant)** source instead.",
  version: "0.2.0",
  dedupe: "unique",
  props: {
    ...httpBase.props,
    ...newUpdates.props,
  },
  methods: {
    ...httpBase.methods,
    ...newUpdates.methods,
  },
  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
Google Sheets	`googleSheets`	`app`	This component uses the Google Sheets 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.
Push notification renewal schedule	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	The Google Drive API requires occasionally renewal of push notification subscriptions. This runs in the background, so you should not need to modify this schedule.
Spreadsheet	`sheetID`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Worksheet(s)	`worksheetIDs`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

emailprofilehttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive

OpenWeather API Overview#

The OpenWeather API is one of the most powerful and comprehensive weather APIs
available today, allowing developers to build a wide range of applications and
services from simple weather forecasting to complex weather analysis. With
access to global weather data from a wide range of sources, including
professional and amateur weather stations, users can gain insight into climate
change, predict storms and floods, better manage existing and developing
weather hazards, and more.

The OpenWeather API is designed to make life easier for developers, by allowing
users to easily interface with detailed and reliable weather data. Here are a
few ways developers can use the OpenWeather API:

Weather Forecasting: Forecast the temperatures and weather conditions of a
given location in the near and distant future.
Real-time Weather Observation: Observe the current weather conditions at a
given location using real-time data from local and international sources.
Rain and Snow Prediction: Predict the amount and intensity of rainfall and
snowfall in a certain area.
Air Pollution Monitoring: Track air pollution levels in a given area.
Historical Data Analyses: Analyze past weather and climate data to identify
patterns and trends.
Risk Assessment: Use historical weather data to determine potential for
extreme weather events and provide risk management solutions.
Emergency Preparedness: Prepare for hazardous weather conditions and plan for
worst-case scenarios by analyzing data from professional and amateur weather
stations.
