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#

Job Run Completed (Instant) on dbt Cloud

Description:Emit new event when a job run has completed.

Version:0.0.2

Key:dbt-job-run-completed

View on GitHub

dbt Cloud Overview#

The dbt Cloud API allows users to initiate jobs, check on their status, and interact with dbt Cloud programmatically. On Pipedream, you can harness this functionality to automate workflows, such as triggering dbt runs, monitoring your data transformation jobs, and integrating dbt Cloud with other data services. By leveraging Pipedream's serverless platform, you can create custom workflows that act on dbt Cloud events or use the dbt Cloud API to manage your data transformation processes seamlessly.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/common.mjs";
import sampleEmit from "./test-event.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "dbt-job-run-completed",
  name: "Job Run Completed (Instant)",
  description: "Emit new event when a job run has completed.",
  version: "0.0.2",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getEventTypes() {
      return [
        "job.run.completed",
      ];
    },
    generateMeta(body) {
      return {
        id: body.eventId,
        summary: `Job "${body.data.jobName}"" completed`,
        ts: Date.parse(body.data.runFinishedAt),
      };
    },
  },
  sampleEmit,
};

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
dbt Cloud	`dbt`	`app`	This component uses the dbt Cloud 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.
Account	`accountId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

About dbt Cloud#

dbt is an intuitive, collaborative platform that lets you reliably transform data using SQL and Python code.

Action#

Slack Overview#

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

The Pipedream Slack app is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.

Automate posting updates to your team channels
Create a bot to answer common questions
Integrate with your existing tools and services
And much more!

Action Code#

import common from "../common/send-message.mjs";

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
Slack	`slack`	`app`	This component uses the Slack app.
Channel	`conversation`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Text	`text`	`string`	Text of the message to send (see Slack's formatting docs). This field is usually necessary, unless you're providing only attachments instead.
Send text as Slack mrkdwn	`mrkdwn`	`boolean`	`TRUE` by default. Pass `FALSE` to disable Slack markup parsing. See docs here
Send as User	`as_user`	`boolean`	Optionally pass `TRUE` to post the message as the authenticated user, instead of as a bot. Defaults to `FALSE`.
Schedule message	`post_at`	`string`	Messages can only be scheduled up to 120 days in advance, and cannot be scheduled for the past. The datetime should be in ISO 8601 format. (Example: `2014-01-01T00:00:00Z`)
Include link to workflow	`include_sent_via_pipedream_flag`	`boolean`	Defaults to `true`, includes a link to the workflow at the end of your Slack message.

Add Message Metadata	`addMessageMetadata`	`boolean`	Set the metadata event type and payload
Configure Unfurl Settings	`configureUnfurlSettings`	`boolean`	Configure settings for unfurling links and media

Action Authentication#

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

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

channels:historychannels:readchannels:writeemoji:readgroups:historygroups:readgroups:writeim:historyim:readim:writelinks:readlinks:writempim:historympim:readmpim:writereactions:readreactions:writereminders:readreminders:writestars:readteam:readusergroups:readusergroups:writeusers:readusers:read.emailusers:writechat:write:botchat:write:userfiles:write:usercommandsusers.profile:writeusers.profile:read

About Slack#

Slack is a channel-based messaging platform. With Slack, people can work together more effectively, connect all their software tools and services, and find the information they need to do their best work — all within a secure, enterprise-grade environment.
