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:The source subscribes to all emails delivered to a specific domain configured in AWS SES. When an email is sent to any address at the domain, this event source emits that email as a formatted event. These events can trigger a Pipedream workflow and can be consumed via SSE or REST API.
Version:1.2.0
Key:aws-new-emails-sent-to-ses-catch-all-domain

AWS Overview

You can use the AWS API to build a variety of applications and services. Here
are some examples:

  • A mobile application that allows users to access data stored in the cloud
  • A web application that allows users to upload and download files
  • A web service that allows developers to access Amazon's vast product catalog
  • A desktop application that allows users to access their Amazon account

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.

Trigger Authentication

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

Follow the AWS Instructions for creating an IAM user with an associated access and secret key.

As a best practice, attach the minimum set of IAM permissions necessary to perform the specific task in Pipedream. If your workflow only needs to perform a single API call, you should create a user and associate an IAM group / policy with permission to do only that task. You can create as many linked AWS accounts in Pipedream as you'd like.

Enter your access and secret key below.

Action

Description:Send a simple or structured message (using embeds) to a Discord channel
Version:1.0.1
Key:discord-send-message-advanced

Discord Overview

The Pipedream Discord app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Discord API. When you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your guilds, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Discord actions, or write your own code against the Discord API.

Action Code

import { ConfigurationError } from "@pipedream/platform";
import common from "../common/common.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "discord-send-message-advanced",
  name: "Send Message (Advanced)",

      optional: true,
    },
    embeds: {
      propDefinition: [
        common.props.discord,
        "embeds",
      ],
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const {
      message,

      embeds: embedsProp,
    } = this;
    const embeds = embedsProp;

    if (!message && !embeds) {
      throw new ConfigurationError("This action requires at least 1 message OR embeds object. Please enter one or the other above.");
    }

    let content = message;
    if (includeSentViaPipedream) {
      if (embeds?.length) {
        embeds.push({
          "color": 16777215,
          "description": this.getSentViaPipedreamText(),
        });
      } else {
        content = this.appendPipedreamText(message ?? "");
      }
    }

    try {
      const resp = await this.discord.sendMessage(this.channel, {
        avatar_url: avatarURL,
        username,
        embeds,

      throw err;
    }
  },
};

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
DiscorddiscordappThis component uses the Discord app.
channelchannel$.discord.channel
Messagemessagestring

Enter a simple message up to 2000 characters. This is the most commonly used field. However, it's optional if you pass embed content.

Thread IDthreadIDstring

If provided, the message will be posted to this thread

Usernameusernamestring

Overrides the current username of the webhook

Avatar URLavatarURLstring

If used, it overrides the default avatar of the webhook. Note: Consecutive posts by the same username within 10 minutes of each other will not display updated avatar.

Include link to workflowincludeSentViaPipedreamboolean

Defaults to true, includes a link to this workflow at the end of your Discord message.

Embedsembedsany

Optionally pass an array of embed objects. E.g., {{ [{"description":"Use markdown including *Italic* **bold** __underline__ ~~strikeout~~ [hyperlink](https://google.com) `code`"}] }}. To pass data from another step, enter a reference using double curly brackets (e.g., {{steps.mydata.$return_value}}).
Tip: Construct the embeds array in a Node.js code step, return it, and then pass the return value to this step.

Action Authentication

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

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