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
Twitter	`app`	`app`	This component uses the Twitter app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
User Name or ID	`userNameOrId`	`string`	A Twitter username (handle) prefixed with `@` (e.g. `@pipedream`). You can also use the string `me` to use the authenticated user (default), or a numeric User ID.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

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 common from "../common/common.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "discord-send-message",
  name: "Send Message",
  description: "Send a simple message to a Discord channel",
  version: "1.0.1",
  type: "action",
  async run({ $ }) {
    const {
      message,
      avatarURL,
      threadID,
      username,
      includeSentViaPipedream,
    } = this;

    try {
      const resp = await this.discord.sendMessage(this.channel, {
        avatar_url: avatarURL,
        username,
        content: includeSentViaPipedream
          ? this.appendPipedreamText(message)
          : message,
      }, {
        thread_id: threadID,
      });
      $.export("$summary", "Message sent successfully");
      return resp || {
        success: true,
      };
    } catch (err) {
      console.log(err);
      const unsentMessage = this.getUserInputProps();
      $.export("unsent", unsentMessage);
      throw err;
    }
  },
};
