Product Hacks: How can I pull a list if all pipe IDs?Product Hacks

Have you already asked yourself if there’s an easier way to pull a list of all processes IDs from your Pipefy organization? Using  a GraphQL query that will be possible.   GraphQL is a query language for your API, and a server-side runtime for executing queries by using a type system you define for your data. This technology helps you search for information in your organization in a much faster and practical way.   Ok, but you are probably asking yourself what should I do?    First, you need to access Pipefy’s GraphQL page: https://app.pipefy.com/graphiql , that should pretty much look like this:   Now you should paste the query below on the left white side of the page:   Query:   {organization(id:Paste here the ORG ID){ pipes {   id }   id    }  }      }  } }}   It will  look like this (example bellow):   After that, press the execute button on the top left side of your screen.

Product Hacks: QR Code and Public Form IntegrationProduct Hacks

QR code (or Quick Response code) is the trademark for a type of matrix barcode (or two-dimensional barcode). A barcode is a machine-readable optical label that contains information about the item to which it is attached.   In other words, it's a link that your smartphone camera can read.    Pipefy's start form can generate a public link that allows anyone to create a request from outside our software. This link can be easily configured  as a QR code. Ok, and so what?   The QR code can be an easy way to fill a reimbursement form, travel/facilities, or any HR request directly from your mobile.   Here is a quick guide on how to configure that: : 1- Create a Pipefy start form  2- Turn this into a public form by clicking on the button “Share” on the right side of the form (image below)    3- After that , enable the public form button, generate a public link and copy it.      4- After copying the link, you need to go to a free or paid QR Code generator website.
