Airtable Overview#

Airtable (OAuth) API on Pipedream allows you to manipulate and leverage your Airtable data in a myriad of powerful ways. Sync data between Airtable and other apps, trigger workflows on updates, or process bulk data operations asynchronously. By using Airtable's structured databases with Pipedream's serverless platform, you can craft custom automation solutions, integrate with other services seamlessly, and streamline complex data processes.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/common-webhook-field.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  name: "New Field Created (Instant)",
  description: "Emit new event when a field is created in the selected table. [See the documentation](https://airtable.com/developers/web/api/get-base-schema)",
  key: "airtable_oauth-new-field",
  version: "1.0.4",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getChangeTypes() {
      return [
        "add",
      ];
    },
  },
};

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
Airtable	`airtable`	`app`	This component uses the Airtable 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.
Base	`baseId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Table	`tableId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
View	`viewId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
From Sources	`fromSources`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`{ "value": "client", "label": "Changes generated by a user through the web or mobile clients" }{ "value": "publicApi", "label": "Changes generated through the Airtable API" }{ "value": "formSubmission", "label": "Changes generated when a form view is submitted" }{ "value": "formPageSubmission", "label": "Changes generated when an interface form builder page, form layout page, or record creation button page is submitted" }{ "value": "automation", "label": "Changes generated through an automation action" }{ "value": "system", "label": "Changes generated by system events, such as processing time function formulas" }{ "value": "sync", "label": "Changes generated through Airtable Sync" }{ "value": "anonymousUser", "label": "Changes generated by an anonymous user" }{ "value": "unknown", "label": "Unknown" }`

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

data.records:readdata.records:writedata.recordComments:readdata.recordComments:writeschema.bases:readschema.bases:writewebhook:manageuser.email:read

About Airtable#

PagerDuty Overview#

The PagerDuty API offers a powerful interface to automate your digital operations management. By leveraging its capabilities on Pipedream, you can create workflows that respond to incidents, automate alerts, and synchronize incident data across various platforms. PagerDuty's API enables you to manage services, teams, and incidents, ensuring that your systems remain operational and that the right people are notified at the right time.
