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

Description:Watches for changes to specific files in a shared drive, emitting an event when a change is made to one of those files
Version:0.3.2
Key:google_drive-changes-to-specific-files-shared-drive

Google Drive Overview

The Google Drive API on Pipedream allows you to automate various file management tasks, such as creating, reading, updating, and deleting files within your Google Drive. You can also share files, manage permissions, and monitor changes to files and folders. This opens up possibilities for creating workflows that seamlessly integrate with other apps and services, streamlining document handling, backup processes, and collaborative workflows.

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.
LabelPropTypeDescription
Google DrivegoogleDriveappThis component uses the Google Drive app.
N/Adb$.service.dbThis component uses $.service.db to maintain state between executions.
N/Ahttp$.interface.httpThis 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.
DrivedrivestringSelect a value from the drop down menu.

Include LinkincludeLinkboolean

Upload file to your File Stash and emit temporary download link to the file. Google Workspace documents will be converted to PDF. See the docs to learn more about working with files in Pipedream.

dirdir
Minimum Interval Per FileperFileIntervalinteger

How many minutes to wait until the same file can emit another event.

If set to 0, this interval is disabled and all events will be emitted.

Trigger Authentication

Google Drive uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Google Drive account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Google Drive 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 Drive API.

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

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

About Google Drive

Google Drive is a file storage and synchronization service which allows you to create and share your work online, and access your documents from anywhere.

Action

Description:Alias is how you associate one identity with another. See the docs [here](https://segment.com/docs/connections/sources/catalog/libraries/server/http-api/#alias)
Version:0.1.5
Key:segment-alias

Segment Overview

The Segment API enables you to collect, manage, and route your customer analytics data to various tools for marketing, analytics, and data warehousing. By harnessing the Segment API on Pipedream, you can automate the ingestion and syncing of user events and properties to multiple destinations, allowing you to create seamless data pipelines without manual intervention. Pipedream's serverless platform empowers you to build custom workflows that react to events in real-time, enrich data, or trigger actions across your tech stack.

Action Code

import segmentApp from "../../segment.app.mjs"; export default { key: "segment-alias", name: "Associate one identity with another", description: "Alias is how you associate one identity with another. See the docs [here](https://segment.com/docs/connections/sources/catalog/libraries/server/http-api/#alias)", version: "0.1.5", annotations: { destructiveHint: false, openWorldHint: true, readOnlyHint: false, }, type: "action", props: { segmentApp, context: { propDefinition: [ segmentApp, "context", ], }, integrations: { propDefinition: [ segmentApp, "integrations", ], }, previousId: { type: "string", label: "Previous ID", description: "Previous unique identifier for the user", }, timestamp: { propDefinition: [ segmentApp, "timestamp", ], }, userId: { propDefinition: [ segmentApp, "userId", ], }, }, async run({ $ }) { return this.segmentApp.alias({ $, data: { context: this.context, integrations: this.integrations, previousId: this.previousId, timestamp: this.timestamp, userId: this.userId, }, }); }, }; 

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.

LabelPropTypeDescription
SegmentsegmentAppappThis component uses the Segment app.
Contextcontextobject

Dictionary of extra information that provides useful context about a message, but is not directly related to the API call like ip address or locale

Integrationsintegrationsobject

Dictionary of destinations to either enable or disable

Previous IDpreviousIdstring

Previous unique identifier for the user

Timestamptimestampstring

Timestamp when the message itself took place, defaulted to the current time by the Segment Tracking API. It is an ISO-8601 date string. For example, 2022-04-08T17:32:11.318Z

User IDuserIdstring

Unique identifier for the user in your database., A User ID or an Anonymous ID is required.

Action Authentication

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

Segment's APIs are accessed programmatically using access tokens, as well as write keys.

Access Token

Create access tokens via the Access Management page in your account: https://app.segment.com/{your-workspace-name}/settings/access-management. See "Get a Token" for more details. Please note, that you must be on a Team or Business plan to create an access token.

Write Key

You will also need to find your write key, which is a unique identifier for your Source. To find a write key, you first need to create a non-Cloud Source such as a website, server, or mobile source. (Cloud-sources do not have write keys, as they use a token or key from your account with that service.) Then, in the Source, go to “Settings’, and then go to “API Keys”. See "Locating Your Write Key" for more details.
