BigCommerce Overview#

The BigCommerce API enables merchants to seamlessly manage their e-commerce operations by automating tasks, syncing data, and integrating with a plethora of other services. With Pipedream, you can tap into the BigCommerce API to create custom workflows that handle everything from order processing to customer relationship management.

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
BigCommerce	`bigcommerce`	`app`	This component uses the BigCommerce 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.
Using channel	`channel`	`boolean`	Channel of the webhook

Trigger Authentication#

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

Navigate to Settings > API > Store-level API accounts
Name the account (it will only be visible to store users)
In the OAuth Scopes section, select the minimum scopes the app will require
Press Save.

The base API path will look something like this: https://api.bigcommerce.com/stores/123456/

In example above, the store_hash is 123456. Enter this and the access token below.

Ahrefs Overview#

Ahrefs API taps into the vast data reserves of Ahrefs, a robust SEO tool, to programmatically access insights into backlink profiles, keyword rankings, and SEO health. With Pipedream's capabilities, you can automate SEO monitoring, integrate with content management systems, trigger alerts for new or lost backlinks, or gather intelligence for keyword research—all without manual intervention. This unlocks the potential for real-time SEO strategy adjustments and the integration of SEO data into broader business processes or analytics platforms.
