Mautic Overview#

The Mautic API empowers marketers to automate and integrate a wide range of marketing tasks directly into Pipedream workflows. With Mautic's API, you can manage contacts, campaigns, emails, and reports, and use triggers to automate responses based on user behavior. It's a robust tool to align marketing efforts with real-time data and actions, making it possible to personalize communication, streamline follow-ups, and ultimately drive conversions with less manual effort.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...base,
  key: "mautic-updated-contact",
  // eslint-disable-next-line pipedream/source-name
  name: "Updated Contact",
  description: "Emit new event when a contact is updated. [See the docs](https://developer.mautic.org/#webhooks)",
  version: "0.0.1",
  type: "source",
  methods: {
    ...base.methods,
    getEventType() {
      return constants.EVENT_TYPES.CONTACT_UPDATED;
    },
    getEventListFn() {
      return {
        fn: this.mautic.listContacts,
        params: {
          orderBy: "date_modified",
        },
      };
    },
    isRelevant(contact) {
      return contact.dateAdded !== contact.dateModified;
    },
    generateMeta(contact) {
      const name = `${contact.fields.core.firstname.value} ${contact.fields.core.lastname.value}`;
      const {
        id,
        dateModified: ts,
      } = contact;
      return {
        id: `${id}_${ts}`,
        ts,
        summary: `Updated contact: ${name}`,
      };
    },
    emitEvent(event) {
      const contact = event.contact
        ? event.contact
        : event;
      const meta = this.generateMeta(contact);
      console.log(`Emitting event - ${meta.summary}`);
      this.$emit(contact, meta);
    },
  },
};

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
Mautic	`mautic`	`app`	This component uses the Mautic 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.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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