Zoho Projects Overview#

The Zoho Projects API lets you harness the full potential of project management by enabling seamless integration with other tools and automating routine tasks. With it, you can create projects, manage tasks, track time, and customize your workflow. On Pipedream, you can leverage this API to build robust automations that connect Zoho Projects with a plethora of other apps, streamlining project tracking and collaboration workflows, all without writing a single line of code.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "zoho_projects-new-project",
  name: "New Project",

        summary: `Project ID ${resource.id_string}`,
      };
    },
  },
};

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
Zoho Projects	`zohoProjects`	`app`	This component uses the Zoho Projects app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Polling schedule	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	How often to poll the Zoho Projects API
Portal ID	`portalId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

ZohoProjects.portals.allZohoProjects.projects.allZohoProjects.activities.createZohoProjects.status.readZohoProjects.milestones.allZohoProjects.tasklists.allZohoProjects.tasks.allZohoProjects.timesheets.allZohoProjects.bugs.allZohoProjects.tags.allZohoProjects.events.allZohoProjects.forums.allZohoProjects.users.allZohoProjects.documents.CREATEZohoPC.files.CREATEZohoProjects.search.readZohoProjects.documents.READWorkDrive.team.ALLWorkDrive.workspace.ALLWorkDrive.files.ALL

Discord Overview#

The Discord API interacts seamlessly with Pipedream, empowering you to craft customized automations and workflows for your Discord server. With this powerful integration, you can automate tasks like message posting, user management, and notifications, based on a myriad of triggers and actions from different apps. These automations can enhance the Discord experience for community moderators and members, by synchronizing with external tools, organizing community engagement, and streamlining notifications.

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,
      avatarURL,
      threadID,
      username,
      includeSentViaPipedream,
      suppressNotifications,

    } = this;
    const embeds = embedsProp;

      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,
        flags: this.getMessageFlags(suppressNotifications),
        embeds,
        content,

      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.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Discord	`discord`	`app`	This component uses the Discord app.
channel	`channel`	`$.discord.channel`
Message	`message`	`string`	Enter a simple message up to 2000 characters. This is the most commonly used field. However, it's optional if you pass embed content.
Thread ID	`threadID`	`string`	If provided, the message will be posted to this thread
Username	`username`	`string`	Overrides the current username of the webhook
Avatar URL	`avatarURL`	`string`	If used, it overrides the default avatar of the webhook. Note: Consecutive posts by the same username within 10 minutes of each other will not display updated avatar.
Include link to workflow	`includeSentViaPipedream`	`boolean`	Defaults to `true`, includes a link to this workflow at the end of your Discord message.
Suppress notifications	`suppressNotifications`	`boolean`	Defaults to `false`, sends the message as silent, triggers no notifications to clients.
Embeds	`embeds`	`any`	Optionally pass an array of embed objects. E.g., {{ [{"description":"Use markdown including Italic bold __underline__ ~~strikeout~~ [hyperlink](https://google.com) `code`"}] }}. To pass data from another step, enter a reference using double curly brackets (e.g., `{{steps.mydata.$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:
