Pivotal Tracker Overview#

Pipedream's integration with the Pivotal Tracker API turns your project management into a powerhouse of automation and connectivity. It allows you to orchestrate workflows that can respond to changes in your projects, stories, and tasks in real-time. For instance, you can sync project updates with other tools, extract metrics for reporting, or even streamline notification systems to keep your entire team in the loop effortlessly.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,
  name: "New Story Created (Instant)",
  key: "pivotal_tracker-new-story-created",
  description: "Emit new event when a new story is created in a project.",
  version: "0.0.1",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    generateMeta(activity) {
      return {
        id: activity.guid,
        summary: activity.changes[0].name,
        ts: activity.occurred_at,
      };
    },
  },
  async run(event) {
    const { body } = event;
    if (body.kind === "story_create_activity") {
      const meta = this.generateMeta(body);
      this.$emit(body, meta);
    }
  },
};

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
Pivotal Tracker	`pivotalTracker`	`app`	This component uses the Pivotal Tracker 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.
Project ID	`projectId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

The API token section of your Profile page displays your API token and also allows you to change or revoke it, if necessary.

Action#

Send any HTTP Request on HTTP / Webhook

Description:Send an HTTP request using any method and URL. Optionally configure query string parameters, headers, and basic auth.

Version:1.1.1

Key:http-custom-request

HTTP / Webhook Overview#

Build, test, and send HTTP requests without code using your Pipedream workflows. The HTTP / Webhook action is a tool to build HTTP requests with a Postman-like graphical interface.

Point and click HTTP requests

Define the target URL, HTTP verb, headers, query parameters, and payload body without writing custom code.

$A screenshot of Pipedream's HTTP Request Configuration interface with a GET request type selected. The request URL is set to 'https://api.openai.com/v1/models'. The 'Auth' tab is highlighted, indicating that authentication is required for this request. In the headers section, there are two headers configured: 'User-Agent' is set to 'pipedream/1', and 'Authorization' is set to 'Bearer {{openai_api_key}}', showing how the OpenAI account's API key is dynamically inserted into the headers to handle authentication automatically.$

Here's an example workflow that uses the HTTP / Webhook action to send an authenticated API request to OpenAI.

Focus on integrating, not authenticating

This action can also use your connected accounts with third-party APIs. Selecting an integrated app will automatically update the request’s headers to authenticate with the app properly, and even inject your token dynamically.

Pipedream integrates with thousands of APIs, but if you can’t find a Pipedream integration simply use Environment Variables in your request headers to authenticate with.

Compatible with no code actions or Node.js and Python

The HTTP/Webhook action exports HTTP response data for use in subsequent workflow steps, enabling easy data transformation, further API calls, database storage, and more.

Response data is available for both coded (Node.js, Python) and no-code steps within your workflow.

Action Code#

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

export default {
  key: "http-custom-request",
  name: "Send any HTTP Request",
  description: "Send an HTTP request using any method and URL. Optionally configure query string parameters, headers, and basic auth.",
  type: "action",
  version: "1.1.1",
  props: {
    http,
    httpRequest: {
      propDefinition: [
        http,
        "httpRequest",
      ],
    },
    includeHeaders: {
      type: "boolean",
      label: "Include Response Headers",
      description: "Optionally export the full response headers",
      optional: true,
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const response = await this.httpRequest.execute();

    if (this.includeHeaders) {
      $.export("headers", response.headers);
    }

    return response;
  },
};
