In this paper we consider dipolar quantum gases in a quasi-one-dimensional tube with dipole moment perpendicular to the tube direction. We deduce the effective one-dimensional interaction potential and show that this potential is not purely repulsive, but rather has an attractive part due to high-order scattering processes through transverse excited states. The attractive part can induce bound states and cause scattering resonances. This represents the dipole-induced resonance in low dimension. We work out an unconventional behavior of low-energy phase shift for this effective potential and show how it evolves across a resonance. Based on the phase shift, the interaction energy of spinless bosons is obtained using the asymptotic Bethe ansatz. Despite the long-range nature of dipolar interaction, we find that the behavior is similar to a short-range Lieb-Liniger gas emerging at the resonance region.
