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.

Trigger#

New Document Created (Instant) on Google Docs

Description:Emit new event when a new document is created in Google Docs. [See the documentation](https://developers.google.com/drive/api/reference/rest/v3/changes/watch)

Version:0.0.1

Google Docs Overview#

The Google Docs API allows you to create, read, and update Google Docs programmatically, enabling a wide range of automations and integrations with other apps and services. With Pipedream, you can harness this API to craft custom serverless workflows that trigger on various events, like form submissions, emails, or scheduled times, and perform actions like updating a document, extracting content, or even generating templated reports.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "google_docs-new-document-created",
  name: "New Document Created (Instant)",
  description: "Emit new event when a new document is created in Google Docs. [See the documentation](https://developers.google.com/drive/api/reference/rest/v3/changes/watch)",
  version: "0.0.1",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    generateMeta(doc) {
      return {
        id: doc.documentId,
        summary: `New Document: ${doc.documentId}`,
        ts: Date.now(),
      };
    },
    async processChanges() {
      const lastFileCreatedTime = this._getLastFileCreatedTime();
      const timeString = new Date(lastFileCreatedTime).toISOString();

      const args = this.getListFilesOpts({
        q: `mimeType != "application/vnd.google-apps.folder" and createdTime > "${timeString}" and trashed = false`,
        orderBy: "createdTime desc",
        fields: "*",
      });

      const { files } = await this.googleDrive.listFilesInPage(null, args);
      if (!files?.length) {
        return;
      }
      await this.emitFiles(files);
      this._setLastFileCreatedTime(Date.parse(files[0].createdTime));
    },
  },
};

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
Google Docs	`googleDrive`	`app`	This component uses the Google Docs 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.
Push notification renewal schedule	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	The Google Drive API requires occasional renewal of push notification subscriptions. This runs in the background, so you should not need to modify this schedule.
Folder	`folders`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive

MongoDB Overview#

The MongoDB API provides powerful capabilities to interact with a MongoDB database, allowing you to perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations, manage databases, and execute sophisticated queries. With Pipedream, you can harness these abilities to automate tasks, sync data across various apps, and react to events in real-time. It’s a combo that’s particularly potent for managing data workflows, syncing application states, or triggering actions based on changes to your data.

Action Code#

import mongodbApp from "../../mongodb.app.mjs";

export default {
  key: "mongodb-update-document",
  name: "Update a Document",
  description: "Updates a single document by ID. [See the docs here](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/method/db.collection.findOneAndUpdate/)",
  version: "0.1.5",
  type: "action",
  props: {
    mongodbApp,
    database: {
      propDefinition: [
        mongodbApp,
        "database",
      ],
    },
    collection: {
      propDefinition: [
        mongodbApp,
        "collection",
        (c) => ({
          database: c.database,
        }),
      ],
    },
    document: {
      propDefinition: [
        mongodbApp,
        "document",
        (c) => ({
          database: c.database,
          collection: c.collection,
        }),
      ],
    },
    data: {
      label: "Data",
      type: "object",
      description: "The object to be used in document update. Values will be interpreted as strings. To pass a number, boolean, array, or object, wrap the value in an expression. eg. `{{1}}`",
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    await this.mongodbApp.updateDocument(
      this.database,
      this.collection,
      this.document,
      this.data,
    );
    $.export("$summary", `Document "${this.document}" successfully updated`);
  },
};

Action Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
MongoDB	`mongodbApp`	`app`	This component uses the MongoDB app.
Database	`database`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Collection	`collection`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Document	`document`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Data	`data`	`object`	The object to be used in document update. Values will be interpreted as strings. To pass a number, boolean, array, or object, wrap the value in an expression. eg. `{{1}}`

Action Authentication#

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

Before you connect to your Mongo database from Pipedream, please make sure your database is accessible from the public internet. You may need to add a firewall rule allowing connections from 0.0.0.0/0.

Then, enter the details of your Mongo host / database below.
