Big Cartel Overview#

The Big Cartel API unlocks the power to automate and integrate your e-commerce operations, enabling you to seamlessly manage products, orders, and store settings. With Pipedream, you can harness this functionality within serverless workflows to trigger actions based on store events, sync data across platforms, or personalize customer interactions—all without the need for dedicated infrastructure.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common.mjs";

export default {
  key: "big_cartel-new-product",
  name: "New Product Event",
  description: "Emit new events when a new product is created. [See the docs here](https://developers.bigcartel.com/api/v1#get-all-products)",

  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  ...common,
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getResourceFn() {
      return this.app.getProducts;
    },
    getSummary(item) {
      return `New Product(ID:${item?.id}) ${item?.attributes?.name}`;
    },
    getResourceKey() {
      return "data";
    },
    compareFn(item) {
      return new Date(item?.attributes?.created_at).getTime() > this.getLastFetchTime();
    },
    getDate(item) {
      return item?.attributes?.created_at;
    },
  },
};

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

Trigger Authentication#

Big Cartel uses OAuth authentication.

Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Big Cartel API.

SWAPI - Star Wars Overview#

The SWAPI - Star Wars API is a treasure trove of structured data from the Star Wars universe. It's a go-to resource for fetching information about planets, spaceships, vehicles, people, films, and species from the iconic franchise. Using Pipedream, you can harness this data to create automations and workflows that trigger based on specific criteria from SWAPI. For instance, you could set up a workflow that notifies you when new data is added, enrich customer profiles with their favorite Star Wars characters, or even use it for trivia games by pulling random facts.

Action Code#

const swapi = require("../../swapi.app.js");
const axios = require("axios");

module.exports = {
  key: "swapi-get-film",
  name: "Get Film",
  version: "0.0.13",
  description: "Get a film",
  type: "action",
  props: {
    swapi,
    film: {
      propDefinition: [
        swapi,
        "film",
      ],
    },
  },
  async run() {
    return (await axios({
      url: `https://swapi.dev/api/films/${this.film}`,
    })).data;
  },
};
