Deputy Overview#

Deputy is a robust workforce management tool, catering to scheduling, timesheet tracking, and other employee coordination tasks. Leveraging the Deputy API on Pipedream allows you to automate mundane tasks, sync data across platforms, and create custom notifications based on employee actions. You could build workflows to manage shifts, sync employee details with HR systems, or trigger payroll processes, harnessing Pipedream's capability to integrate with various services without the need for manual coding.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "deputy-new-timesheet-saved",
  name: "New Timesheet Saved (Instant)",
  description: "Emit new event when a new timesheet has been saved",
  version: "0.0.1",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getTopic() {
      return "Timesheet.Save";
    },
    generateMeta(timesheet) {
      return {
        id: timesheet.Id,
        summary: `New Timesheet: ${timesheet.Id}`,
        ts: Date.parse(timesheet.Created),
      };
    },
  },
  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
Deputy	`deputy`	`app`	This component uses the Deputy 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.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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