Productboard Overview#

The Productboard API offers a way to extend the capabilities of Productboard, a product management platform that helps teams organize and prioritize user feedback and feature requests. By leveraging this API on Pipedream, you can automate repetitive tasks, sync data across various apps, and create custom integrations to streamline your product management process. This can include automating feedback collection, updating roadmaps, or coordinating cross-functional team efforts.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "productboard-new-feature",
  name: "New Feature",
  description: "Emit new event when a new feature is added",
  type: "source",
  version: "0.0.1",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    async getHistoricalEvents() {
      const { data } = await this.productboard.listFeatures();
      return data;
    },
    getEventType() {
      return "feature.created";
    },
    generateMeta(feature) {
      return {
        id: feature.id,
        summary: feature.name,
        ts: Date.parse(feature.createdAt),
      };
    },
  },
};

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
Productboard	`productboard`	`app`	This component uses the Productboard 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#

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

Note: Productboard only provides Access Tokens to Pro accounts. If you do not see this option, you may be on the Essentials plan.

To retrieve your API key, navigate to your Productboard account and sign in
Go to “Workspace Settings” > “Integrations” > “Public API” > “Access Token”

Amazon SES Overview#

Amazon Simple Email Service (SES) is a powerful cloud-based email sending service designed to help digital marketers and application developers send marketing, notification, and transactional emails. With the SES API, you can reliably send emails at scale, manage sender reputations, view email sending statistics, and maintain a high deliverability rate. Leveraging Pipedream's capabilities, you can integrate SES seamlessly into serverless workflows, automate email responses based on triggers from other apps, and analyze the effectiveness of your email campaigns by connecting to data analytics platforms.
