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.

Twilio SendGrid Overview#

The Twilio SendGrid API opens up a world of possibilities for email automation, enabling you to send emails efficiently and track their performance. With this API, you can programmatically create and send personalized email campaigns, manage contacts, and parse inbound emails for data extraction. When you harness the power of Pipedream, you can connect SendGrid to hundreds of other apps to automate workflows, such as triggering email notifications based on specific actions, syncing email stats with your analytics, or handling incoming emails to create tasks or tickets.

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
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Twilio SendGrid	`sendgrid`	`app`	This component uses the Twilio SendGrid app.
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.
Event Types	`eventTypes`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

Upload File on SFTP (key-based auth)

SFTP (key-based auth) Overview#

The SFTP (key-based auth) app on Pipedream allows you to securely transfer and manage files over a network. It uses SSH for data transfer and provides the same level of security as SSH, without requiring password authentication, making automation workflows more secure and less prone to human error. You can automate file uploads, downloads, synchronization tasks, and efficiently manage your remote files in a serverless environment. Integrating this with other Pipedream-supported apps enables you to craft powerful and secure data flow systems.

Action Code#

import app from "../../sftp.app.mjs";
import fs from "fs";
import { ConfigurationError } from "@pipedream/platform";

export default {
  key: "sftp-upload-file",
  name: "Upload File",
  description: "Uploads a file or string in UTF-8 format to the SFTP server. [See the documentation](https://github.com/theophilusx/ssh2-sftp-client#org99d1b64)",
  version: "0.2.0",
  type: "action",
  props: {
    app,
    file: {
      propDefinition: [
        app,
        "file",
      ],
    },
    data: {
      type: "string",
      label: "Data",
      description: "Upload a string in UTF-8 format to the remote server.",
      optional: true,
    },
    remotePath: {
      type: "string",
      label: "Remote Path",
      description: "The path on the sftp server for store the data. e.g. `./uploads/my-file.txt`",
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    if (!this.data && !this.file) {
      throw new ConfigurationError("Either `Data` or `File` must be provided.");
    }

    const buffer = this.file ?
      fs.readFileSync(this.file) :
      Buffer.from(this.data);

    const response = await this.app.put({
      buffer: buffer,
      remotePath: this.remotePath,
    });

    $.export("$summary", "Successfully uploaded data stream");
    return response;
  },
};

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
SFTP (key-based auth)	`app`	`app`	This component uses the SFTP (key-based auth) app.
File	`file`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Data	`data`	`string`	Upload a string in UTF-8 format to the remote server.
Remote Path	`remotePath`	`string`	The path on the sftp server for store the data. e.g. `./uploads/my-file.txt`

Action Authentication#

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

This app holds details for an SFTP server you want to interact with in Pipedream.

Below, enter the hostname of the server you'd like to connect to, your username, and the private key you'd like to use to connect.

This app only supports key pair authentication, not authentication via password. If you need to use a username / password to connect to a host, please use the SFTP (password-based auth) app, instead.
