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.

Square Overview#

The Square API opens up a realm of possibilities for merchants to effortlessly manage their sales, inventory, customers, and payments. With Pipedream, you can automate actions based on events in Square, such as new transactions, updated orders, or customer profile changes. Craft custom workflows that react in real-time, sync data across platforms, or streamline reporting. Through Pipedream's serverless platform, you can connect Square with countless other apps without writing extensive code, turning manual tasks into automated, efficient processes.

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
Square	`square`	`app`	This component uses the Square app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Location	`location`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

CUSTOMERS_READCUSTOMERS_WRITEPAYMENTS_READPAYMENTS_WRITEORDERS_READORDERS_WRITESUBSCRIPTIONS_READSUBSCRIPTIONS_WRITEITEMS_READITEMS_WRITEINVOICES_READINVOICES_WRITELOYALTY_READLOYALTY_WRITEEMPLOYEES_READEMPLOYEES_WRITEMERCHANT_PROFILE_READBANK_ACCOUNTS_READSETTLEMENTS_READDEVELOPER_APPLICATION_WEBHOOKS_WRITEAPPOINTMENTS_ALL_READAPPOINTMENTS_READ

Python Overview#

Develop, run and deploy your Python code in Pipedream workflows. Integrate seamlessly between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and manipulate files within a workflow.

This includes installing PyPI packages, within your code without having to manage a requirements.txt file or running pip.

Below is an example of using Python to access data from the trigger of the workflow, and sharing it with subsequent workflow steps:

Action Code#

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

export default {
  name: "Run Python Code",
  version: "0.0.2",
  key: "python-run-python-code",
  description: "Write Python and use any of the 350k+ PyPi packages available. Refer to the [Pipedream Python docs](https://pipedream.com/docs/code/python) to learn more.",
  props: {
    python,
  },
  type: "action",
  methods: {},
  async run({
    steps, $,
  }) {
    // Placeholder action for Python code app
  },
};

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
Python	`python`	`app`	This component uses the Python app.

Action Authentication#

The Python API does not require authentication.

About Python#

Anything you can do in Python can be done in a Pipedream Workflow. This includes using any of the 350,000+ PyPi packages available in your Python powered workflows.
