MySQL Overview#

The MySQL application on Pipedream enables direct interaction with your MySQL databases, allowing you to perform CRUD operations—create, read, update, delete—on your data with ease. You can leverage these capabilities to automate data synchronization, report generation, and event-based triggers that kick off workflows in other apps. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can connect MySQL to hundreds of other services without managing infrastructure, crafting complex code, or handling authentication.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/table.mjs";
import { v4 as uuidv4 } from "uuid";

const { mysql } = common.props;

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "mysql-new-or-updated-row",
  name: "New or Updated Row",
  description: "Emit new event when you add or modify a new row in a table. [See the docs here](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/select.html)",
  type: "source",
  version: "2.0.5",
  dedupe: "unique",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
    db: "$.service.db",
    column: {
      propDefinition: [
        mysql,
        "column",
        (c) => ({
          table: c.table,
        }),
      ],
      label: "Order By",
      description:
        "A datetime column, such as 'date_updated' or 'last_modified' that is set to the current datetime when a row is updated.",
    },
  },
  hooks: {
    async deploy() {
      await this.listTopRows(this.column);
    },
  },
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    async listResults() {
      await this.listRowResults(this.column);
    },
    generateMeta(row) {
      return {
        id: uuidv4(),
        summary: `New Row Added/Updated ${row[this.column]}`,
        ts: Date.now(),
      };
    },
  },
};

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
MySQL	`mysql`	`app`	This component uses the MySQL app.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Table	`table`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Order By	`column`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

Connecting to Restricted Databases

Either enable the shared static IP for this account below, or configure a VPC to deploy any workflow in your workspace to a private network with a dedicated static IP. Learn more in our docs.

SSL Setup

Configure SSL on your MySQL database by providing the CA (Certificate Authority), and choosing between Full Verification, Verify Certificate Authority (CA), or Skip Verification. Skipping verification is not recommended as this has serious security implications.

About MySQL#

MySQL is an open-source relational database management system.

MailboxValidator Overview#

MailboxValidator is a precision tool for email verification that checks email lists for bad or invalid addresses. It helps maintain hygiene in your mailing list by ensuring that emails are deliverable, reducing bounce rates significantly. By integrating MailboxValidator with Pipedream, you can automate the cleanse of email lists, validate emails in real-time during sign-up processes, and improve the reliability of email marketing campaigns. Pipedream's platform provides the flexibility to trigger workflows with events, schedule tasks, and connect to numerous other services to enrich data or take actions based on the results of an email validation.

Action Code#

import mailboxvalidator from "../../app/mailboxvalidator.app.mjs";
import { defineAction } from "@pipedream/types";
export default defineAction({
    name: "Validate Email",
    description: "Validate an email address [See docs here](https://www.mailboxvalidator.com/api-single-validation)",

            description: "The email address to be validated.",
            type: "string",
        },
    },
    async run({ $ }) {
        const params = {
            $,
            params: {
                email: this.email,
            },
        };
        const data = await this.mailboxvalidator.validateEmail(params);
        if (data.error_code) {
            throw new Error(`MailboxValidator response: error code ${data.error_code} - ${data.error_message}`);
        }
        $.export("$summary", `Verified email ${data.email_address} (${data.status.toLowerCase() === "true"
            ? "valid"
            : "invalid"})`);
