    2. Select a Target
  3. Configure the Run Node Code action
    1. Connect your Node account
  4. Deploy the workflow
  5. Send a test event to validate your setup
  6. Turn on the trigger

Details

This integration uses pre-built, source-available components from Pipedream's GitHub repo. These components are developed by Pipedream and the community, and verified and maintained by Pipedream.

To contribute an update to an existing component or create a new component, create a PR on GitHub. If you're new to Pipedream component development, you can start with quickstarts for trigger span and action development, and then review the component API reference.

Trigger

Description:Emit new event when a new file uploaded on a target. [See the documentation](https://developer.box.com/reference/post-webhooks)
Version:0.0.4
Key:box-new-file

Box Overview

The Box API offers a playground for enhancing content management and collaboration within your cloud storage. With Pipedream, you can orchestrate Box's functionality to automate document handling, streamline approval flows, sync files across apps, and trigger actions based on file events. Think of Pipedream as the glue that allows you to connect Box with your tech stack, triggering workflows with new file uploads, comments, or when sharing settings change, to enhance productivity and minimize manual labor.

Trigger Code

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

export default {
  key: "box-new-file",
  name: "New File Event",
  description: "Emit new event when a new file uploaded on a target. [See the documentation](https://developer.box.com/reference/post-webhooks)",
  version: "0.0.4",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  ...common,
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getTriggers() {
      return [
        "FILE.UPLOADED",
      ];
    },
    getSummary(event) {
      return  `New file uploaded event with ID(${event.id})`;
    },
  },
};

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.
LabelPropTypeDescription
BoxappappThis component uses the Box app.
N/Ahttp$.interface.httpThis component uses $.interface.http to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the run() method of the component.
N/Adb$.service.dbThis component uses $.service.db to maintain state between executions.
TargetwebhookTargetstringSelect a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication

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

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

About Box

Platform for secure content management, workflow, and collaboration

Action

Description:Write custom Node.js code and use any of the 400k+ npm packages available. Refer to the [Pipedream Node docs](https://pipedream.com/docs/code/nodejs) to learn more.
Version:0.0.2
Key:node-run-node-code

Node Overview

Develop, run and deploy your Node.js code in Pipedream workflows, using it between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and File Stores.

This includes installing NPM packages, within your code without having to manage a package.json file or running npm install.

Below is an example of installing the axios package in a Pipedream Node.js code step. Pipedream imports the axios package, performs the API request, and shares the response with subsequent workflow steps:

Action Code

import node from "../../node.app.mjs";

export default {
  name: "Run Node Code",
  version: "0.0.2",
  key: "node-run-node-code",
  description: "Write custom Node.js code and use any of the 400k+ npm packages available. Refer to the [Pipedream Node docs](https://pipedream.com/docs/code/nodejs) to learn more.",
  props: {
    node,
  },
  type: "action",
  methods: {},
  async run({
    steps, $,
  }) {
    // Return data to use it in future steps
    return steps.trigger.event;
  },
};

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.

LabelPropTypeDescription
NodenodeappThis component uses the Node app.

Action Authentication

The Node API does not require authentication.

About Node

Anything you can do with Node.js, you can do in a Pipedream workflow. This includes using most of npm's 400,000+ packages.
