Trigger#

New Direct Message (Instant) on Slack

Description:Emit new event when a message was posted in a direct message channel

Version:1.0.13

Key:slack-new-direct-message

Slack Overview#

The Pipedream Slack app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Slack API. When you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your workspace, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Slack actions, or write your own code against the Slack API.

The Pipedream Slack app is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.

Automate posting updates to your team channels
Create a bot to answer common questions
Integrate with your existing tools and services
And much more!

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
Slack	`slack`	`app`	This component uses the Slack app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`slackApphook`	`$.interface.apphook`
Ignore Bots	`ignoreBot`	`boolean`	Ignore messages from bots

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

CoinMarketCap Overview#

The CoinMarketCap API delivers real-time and historical cryptocurrency market data, including price, volume, market cap, and much more, for over 9,000 cryptocurrencies. With this data, you can track crypto trends, compare currency performance, or integrate up-to-date information into apps, widgets, or websites. Pipedream's platform enables developers to create automated workflows that can harness the vast array of data from CoinMarketCap to trigger actions, notify stakeholders, or power analytics dashboards.

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
CoinMarketCap	`coinmarketcap`	`app`	This component uses the CoinMarketCap app.
id	`id`	`string`	One or more comma-separated cryptocurrency CoinMarketCap IDs. Example: 1,2
slug	`slug`	`string`	Alternatively pass a comma-separated list of cryptocurrency slugs. Example: "bitcoin,ethereum"
symbol	`symbol`	`string`	Alternatively pass one or more comma-separated cryptocurrency symbols. Example: "BTC,ETH".
Convert	`convert`	`string`	Optionally calculate market quotes in up to 120 currencies at once by passing a comma-separated list of cryptocurrency or fiat currency symbols. Each additional convert option beyond the first requires an additional call credit. A list of supported fiat options can be found at https://coinmarketcap.com/api/documentation/v1/#section/Standards-and-Conventions. Each conversion is returned in its own "quote" object.
Convert ID	`convertId`	`string`	Optionally calculate market quotes by CoinMarketCap ID instead of symbol. This option is identical to convert outside of ID format. Ex: Convert ID = `1,2781` would replace Convert = `BTC,USD` in your query. This parameter cannot be used when Convert is used.

Action Authentication#

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

Enter your CoinMarketCap API key. See the docs for more information.
Select your environment (Pro vs. Sandbox).
