nocodb Overview#

The NoCodeB (NocoDB) API transforms your databases into a smart Excel sheet, providing a platform for managing your data with the ease of a spreadsheet interface. When combined with Pipedream's capabilities, this API allows you to automate data operations, sync with other databases or apps, and streamline workflows without writing complex code. Using Pipedream, you can trigger events based on changes in your NocoDB, process and manipulate the data, and connect to countless apps to extend functionality, such as sending notifications, updating CRMs, or generating reports.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,
  type: "source",
  name: "New Update in Table",
  key: "nocodb-updated-record",
  description: "Emit new event for each update in table. [See the documentation](https://data-apis-v2.nocodb.com/#tag/Table-Records/operation/db-data-table-row-list)",
  version: "0.0.6",
  dedupe: "unique",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
  },
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getDataToEmit({
      Id, UpdatedAt,
    }) {
      const ts = new Date().getTime();
      return {
        id: `${Id}${UpdatedAt}`,
        summary: `New update (${Id})`,
        ts,
      };
    },
    getTimeField() {
      return "UpdatedAt";
    },
  },
};

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
nocodb	`nocodb`	`app`	This component uses the nocodb app.
Workspace ID	`workspaceId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Project ID	`projectId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Table ID	`tableId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Polling interval	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	Pipedream will poll the Nocodb API on this schedule

Trigger Authentication#

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

Your API key can be found in API Tokens Management within your database.
Your domain is where your app is hosted, so for https://mytable.com use mytable.com for the domain.
