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.

Airbrake Overview#

The Airbrake API facilitates real-time error monitoring and automatic exception reporting for your web applications, giving you instant insight into issues as they arise. With this API, you can create custom notifications, analyze and aggregate error data, and manage your project's error trends. Leveraging Pipedream's capabilities, you can automate workflows that respond to these errors, connect with other services for enhanced issue resolution, and maintain a smooth operation within your development and production environments.

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
Airbrake	`airbrake`	`app`	This component uses the Airbrake app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Project ID	`projectId`	`integer`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

To access a user-based API Key, sign in to your Airbrake account and go to Profile > Profile & Notifications.
To access a Project-based API Key, open a project on your Dashboard, and click Settings on the top right.
Alternatively, you can generate time-expiring user API Tokens here: https://airbrake.io/docs/api/#create-user-token-v4.

About Airbrake#

Airbrake collects errors generated by other applications, and aggregates the results for review.

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 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:

bookmarks:writecalls:readcalls:writechannels:historychannels:readchannels:writednd:readdnd:writeemoji:readfiles:readgroups:historygroups:readgroups:writeim:historyim:readim:writelinks:readlinks:writempim:historympim:readmpim:writepins:readpins:writereactions:readreactions:writereminders:readreminders:writeremote_files:readremote_files:sharestars:readstars:writeteam:readusergroups:readusergroups:writeusers:readusers:read.emailusers:writechat:write:botchat:write:usercommandsfiles:write:userusers.profile:writeusers.profile:readsearch: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.
