Getting Started#

This integration creates a workflow with a ProWorkflow trigger and Node action. When you configure and deploy the workflow, it will run on Pipedream's servers 24x7 for free.

Select this integration
Configure the New Project Created trigger
1. Connect your ProWorkflow account
Configure the Run Node Code action
1. Connect your Node account
Deploy the workflow
Send a test event to validate your setup
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.

ProWorkflow Overview#

The ProWorkflow API offers a powerhouse of project management and workflow automation capabilities. With Pipedream, you can leverage these abilities to create custom integrations that boost productivity and streamline operations. By tapping into ProWorkflow's endpoints, you can automate project creation, task assignments, time tracking, and report generation. This API dovetails neatly with other apps on Pipedream, allowing you to create multifaceted workflows that respond in real-time to external triggers, such as emails, form submissions, and calendar events.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "proworkflow-new-project-created",
  name: "New Project Created",
  description: "Emit new event when a new project is created. [See the docs](https://api.proworkflow.net/?documentation#gettingstartedgetfields).",
  type: "source",
  version: "0.0.1",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getEventName() {
      return constants.EVENT_NAME.NEWPROJECT;
    },
    generateMeta(event) {
      return {
        id: event.id,
        summary: `New Project: ${event.project.id}`,
        ts: Date.parse(event.project.lastmodified),
      };
    },
  },
};

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
ProWorkflow	`app`	`app`	This component uses the ProWorkflow app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
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.

Trigger Authentication#

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

ProWorkflow requires their users enter their account API key as well as username (or email) and password in order to connect to their API. For more info, refer to ProWorkflow's documentation.

Get your API key in the main ProWorkflow application
Pipedream recommends using a strong and unique password for your ProWorkflow account

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;
  },
};
