Getting Started

Select Your Board

Select the dev board you want to generate code for.
How Is It Connected?

Tell us how your board connects to the internet.
Set Up Your Sensors

Sense anything. Choose predefined sensors or select other to set up a generic sensor that reads pin voltage.
Set a Choreo Trigger

Use conditional logic to trigger Temboo Choreos based on sensor values.
Set Up Your Actuators

Choose pre-defined actuators for real-world actions, or select generic actuators to output raw data.
Obtain Your Credentials

Turn on 2-step authentication on your Google account, and then create an application-specific password using these Setup Instructions.

Security Tip

We recommend keeping important credentials out of your code by storing them using Profiles. This also reduces memory consumption and makes it easy to update them without changing your code.
Obtain Your Credentials

You’ll need to go through the OAuth process to obtain proper credentials which Temboo has simplified with Choreos. We recommend checking out this video before getting started with OAuth.

Supply Some Inputs

Give the process an input value e.g., "New York City".

You'll find notes for valid inputs by scrolling to the bottom of the page.
Supply Some Inputs

Fill in the desired Subject, FromAddress, ToAddress, and MessageBody.
Supply Some Inputs

Fill in the desired From, Subject, To, and MessageBody.
Supply Some Inputs

Fill in the desired Values and SpreadsheetID.
Supply Some Inputs

Fill in the desired From, To and Body.
Supply Some Inputs

Fill in the Text input with “Press 1 to change the state of your pin”. This is the message that will be translated to speech in the phone call alert. Fill in the desired ByeText, To, and Body. Set MaxDigits to 1.
Test your inputs in the browser

Click 'Generate Code' to test that your inputs are valid.
Set an Output Trigger

Set a condition based on your actuator values if your Yun should call based on an output.
Select Your Language

Select from the list of boards that come pre-shipped with Temboo's libraries.
Voila! Your Code Is Ready

Download your code and you’re ready to run.

Google requires that you enable 2-step verification and generate an App password to use this Choreo. If you’d like to authenticate using OAuth credentials, you should use the Google.Gmailv2 Choreos.

Obtain Your Client ID
We recommend checking out this video before getting started with OAuth.

Log in to Google's Developer Console, and create a new Project if you haven't done so already.

In the Google API Manager, search for the API you'd like to enable and click Enable.

Go to the credentials tab and create a new Client ID and specify Web Browser for the Application Type.

Save the Consent screen details. Specify this callback URL as the Authorized Redirect URI:
```
https://ACCOUNT_NAME.temboolive.com/callback/google
```
Plug in the Client ID you've generated into the first input.
Specify Required Scopes

Specify any scopes your application requires. Scroll to the Notes section at the bottom of the Choreo page to find the scopes available for Google APIs in the Temboo library.
Test Your Inputs

Click the 'Generate Code' button to generate your Authorization URL and Callback ID.
Visit the Authorization URL

Open a new web browser tab, navigate to the authorization URL returned by the InitializeOAuth Choreo, and click "Accept" to grant the app access to your Google account.
Run the Finalize Choreo

Use the new credentials you've just generated in the FinalizeOAuth Choreo.
Obtain Credentials

Obtain your credentials by following the instructions in the InitializeOAuth Choreo page.

Use the CallbackID generated during the InitializeOAuth process as an input here.
Test Your Inputs

Click the 'Generate Code' button to generate your Refresh Token.
Copy the Refresh Token

You'll need the Refresh Token, Client ID, and Client Secret to run the Google Choreo you're working with.
Use Your Credentials

Use the Refresh Token along with the Client ID and Client Secret to authenticate with Google for the Google Choreo you're interested in.
