Webflow Overview#

The Webflow API empowers developers to programmatically interact with their Webflow site, enabling automation, data synchronization, and complex integrations with other apps and services. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can harness this API to craft custom workflows that react to events, manage content dynamically, or extend the capabilities of your Webflow projects by linking them with a vast array of other applications.

You can connect your Webflow account in a few different ways:

Directly within the workflow builder, from a trigger or an action step. Search for the Webflow app, and connect your account.
From the Pipedream Accounts page: Go to Accounts > Connect an app > Search for "Webflow".
Run the example Node JS code below by clicking "Connect Webflow and run", and choose a project and create an example workflow to interact with the Webflow API.

Trigger Code#

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

export default {
  type: "source",
  key: "webflow-changed-ecommerce-inventory",
  name: "E-commerce Inventory Updated",
  description: "Emit new event when an e-commerce inventory level changes. [See the documentation](https://developers.webflow.com/data/reference/webhooks/events/ecomm-inventory-changed)",
  version: "2.0.0",
  ...common,
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getWebhookTriggerType() {
      return "ecomm_inventory_changed";
    },
    generateMeta(data) {
      const ts = Date.now();
      const { id } = data;

      return {
        id: `${id}-${ts}`,
        summary: `E-comm inventory updated: ${id}`,
        ts,
      };
    },
  },
};

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
Webflow	`app`	`app`	This component uses the Webflow app.
Site	`siteId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
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#

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

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

authorized_user:readsites:readsites:writeforms:readforms:writeecommerce:readecommerce:writeassets:readassets:writecms:readcms:writepages:readpages:write

Xero Accounting Overview#

The Xero Accounting API offers a powerful gateway to access and manipulate financial data within Xero. Leveraging Pipedream's capabilities, developers can build custom workflows that streamline accounting processes, sync financial data with external systems, and trigger actions based on financial events. This API allows for the automation of tasks such as invoicing, bank reconciliation, bill payments, and reporting, which can lead to significant time savings and enhanced data accuracy.
