Typeform Overview#

The Typeform API furnishes you with the means to create dynamic forms and collect user responses in real-time. By leveraging this API within Pipedream's serverless platform, you can automate workflows to process this data, integrate seamlessly with other services, and react to form submissions instantaneously. This empowers you to craft tailored responses, synchronize with databases, trigger email campaigns, or even manage event registrations without manual intervention.

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
Typeform	`typeform`	`app`	This component uses the Typeform 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.
Form	`formId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

offlineaccounts:readforms:writeforms:readimages:writeimages:readthemes:writethemes:readresponses:readresponses:writewebhooks:readwebhooks:writeworkspaces:readworkspaces:write

About Typeform#

Typeform lets you build no-code forms, quizzes, and surveys - and get more responses.

Megaventory Overview#

Megaventory is a robust inventory management API allowing for detailed tracking of products, orders, and the supply chain. You can automate the updating of stock levels, manage sales and purchase orders, and generate detailed reports. With Megaventory and Pipedream, you can craft automation workflows to streamline inventory operations, synchronize data across platforms, and trigger actions based on inventory changes.

Action Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Megaventory	`app`	`app`	This component uses the Megaventory app.
Product SKU	`productSKU`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Product Description	`productDescription`	`string`	The description of the product.
Product Type	`productType`	`string`	The type of the product.

Action Authentication#

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

You can generate an API key for each user of your Megaventory account from Admin -> Users -> Display all -> Click on the user name. You can also copy-paste this link -https://[YOURDOMAIN].megaventory.com/inventory/default.aspx?data=editUser&id=[YOURID]&name=[YOURNAME]

Important: Megaventory user access permissions do apply, i.e. each API key carries the permissions of the user who created it.
