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 Webhook Event (Instant) on GitHub

Description:Emit new event for each selected event type

Version:1.0.11

Key:github-webhook-events

View on GitHub

GitHub Overview#

The GitHub API is a powerful gateway to interaction with GitHub's vast web of data and services, offering a suite of endpoints to manipulate and retrieve information on repositories, pull requests, issues, and more. Harnessing this API on Pipedream, you can orchestrate automated workflows that respond to events in real-time, manage repository data, streamline collaborative processes, and connect GitHub with other services for a more integrated development lifecycle.

Trigger Code#

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.

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

Update Constituent on Little Green Light

Description:Updates a constituent along with related objects in Little Green Light. [See the documentation](https://api.littlegreenlight.com/api-docs/static.html#update_constituent)

Little Green Light Overview#

The Little Green Light API provides access to a robust donor management platform, allowing for the creation, retrieval, update, and deletion of donor data. With the API, you can automate tasks related to fundraising, event management, and donor engagement. On Pipedream, you can harness this API to construct serverless workflows that trigger on various events, integrate with other apps, and automate repetitive tasks without managing infrastructure.

Note: Little Green Light strongly recommends against connecting your LGL account with any AI services like ChatGPT, as that could lead to unintended use of personal data.
