OneDesk Overview#

The OneDesk API allows for the automation and integration of project management and customer support tasks. Through Pipedream, users can leverage this API to create custom workflows that streamline processes, sync data across platforms, and react to events in real-time. By using OneDesk's capabilities in task and ticket management within Pipedream's serverless platform, users can create powerful automations that enhance productivity and coordination between teams.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/polling.mjs";
import activityTypes from "../common/activity-types.mjs";
import sampleEmit from "./test-event.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "onedesk-new-item-created",
  name: "New Item Created",
  description: "Emit new event when a new item is created. [See the documentation](https://www.onedesk.com/dev/).",
  version: "0.0.2",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getActivityTypeProperties() {
      return [
        {
          property: "types",
          operation: "EQ",
          value: activityTypes.CREATED_WORK_ITEM,
        },
      ];
    },
    generateMeta(resource) {
      return {
        id: resource.itemExternalId,
        summary: `New Item Created: ${resource.itemName || resource.itemExternalId}`,
        ts: Date.parse(resource.timestamp),
      };
    },
  },
  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
OneDesk	`app`	`app`	This component uses the OneDesk app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`

Trigger Authentication#

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

Google Sheets Overview#

The Google Sheets API allows for the creation, reading, updating, and deletion of data within Google Sheets, enabling a robust platform for spreadsheet management and data manipulation. Through Pipedream, you can craft serverless workflows that respond to various triggers, such as webhook events, emails, or scheduled times, to interact with Google Sheets. This synergy can automate reporting, synchronize data across applications, manage inventory, track leads in a CRM, or even conduct survey analysis by updating and retrieving sheet data on the fly.
