Wistia Overview#

The Wistia API lets you dive deep into video analytics, manage your media library, and automate video workflows. It's great for developers aiming to extend the functionality of their Wistia-hosted content. When used within Pipedream, you can integrate Wistia with countless other apps and services to create robust automations. You could, for instance, update a CRM with video view data, send custom email alerts based on viewer behavior, or even synchronize video uploads with a content management system.

Trigger Code#

import wistia from "../../wistia.app.mjs";
import { DEFAULT_POLLING_SOURCE_TIMER_INTERVAL } from "@pipedream/platform";

export default {
  name: "New Project",
  version: "0.0.3",
  key: "wistia-new-project",
  description: "Emit new event for each created project.",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  props: {
    wistia,
    timer: {
      type: "$.interface.timer",
      static: {
        intervalSeconds: DEFAULT_POLLING_SOURCE_TIMER_INTERVAL,
      },
    },
  },
  methods: {
    emitEvent(data) {
      this.$emit(data, {
        id: data.id,
        summary: `New project uploaded with id ${data.id}`,
        ts: Date.parse(data.created),
      });
    },
  },
  hooks: {
    async deploy() {
      const projects = await this.wistia.getProjects({
        params: {
          per_page: 10,
        },
      });

      projects.forEach(this.emitEvent);
    },
  },
  async run() {
    let page = 0;

    while (page >= 0) {
      const projects = await this.wistia.getProjects({
        params: {
          page,
          per_page: 100,
        },
      });

      projects.forEach(this.emitEvent);

      if (projects.length < 100) {
        return;
      }

      page++;
    }
  },
};

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
Wistia	`wistia`	`app`	This component uses the Wistia app.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`

Trigger Authentication#

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

When your Wistia account is created, a master token will automatically be generated for you account, which you can find in the API tab of your Account Settings in your Wistia account. This master token has full read/write permissions on your account. You can generate additional access tokens with various permissions as well.

Twilio Overview#

Twilio's API on Pipedream opens up a multitude of communication capabilities, allowing you to build robust, scalable, and automated workflows. With Twilio, you can send and receive SMS and MMS messages, make voice calls, and perform other communication functions programmatically. Leveraging Pipedream's seamless integration, you can connect these communications features with hundreds of other services to automate notifications, streamline customer interactions, and enhance operational efficiency.

Action Authentication#

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

To connect your Twilio account to Pipedream,

API Key and API Key SID

First, create an API key in Twilio.

There are three types of keys: Main, Standard, and Restricted. You'll need a Main key to interact with certain API endpoints, like /Accounts.
If you don't need to interact with those endpoints, you can use a Standard or Restricted key.

After creating your key, you'll see fields for Sid and Secret. Enter those in the fields below.

Account SID and Auth Token

Visit your Twilio Dashboard. You'll see your Account SID and Auth Token under Account info.
