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
Tuya	`tuya`	`app`	This component uses the Tuya app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
User ID	`userId`	`string`	The unique identifier of a user. E.g. `az1748632127862aWriL`
Device Parameter	`deviceParameter`	`string`	The device parameter to watch for updates. E.g. `switch_1`
Home ID	`homeId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

To retrieve your API Credentials "Access ID/Client ID" and "Access Secret/Client Secret",

Navigate to your Tuya account and sign in
Go to “Cloud” > “Project Management”
Select one of your projects, or create a new one.
From the list of your projects, click "Open project" on the rightmost column.
Your API Credentials are displayed in the "Overview" tab.
