Does wappler have the ability to create server side code and api connectivity? If so, how? Creating an app right now that needs specific api connections on the server side.
These are documents regarding Apis: https://community.wappler.io/c/docs/api-and-json/40

Thank you, but I’m asking more about creating Server Side code for third parties to connect via APIs which means creating the APIs themselves. Most documentation just talk about connecting to APIs.
I too am wondering this. I have a small project coming up and wondered if Wappler could assist with creating REST APIs for third party consumption. Is this possible in Wappler?

Have a look at https://www.getpostman.com/ for the creation of REST API’s

@ben I think @jasongodoy and @mikeqhu are referring more to backend 3rd party api request & workflows… similar to something like bubble.is… right now you can only make api request from the browser not the server unless I’m missing something
What exactly are you trying to do?
There are server side API tools and client side API tools. What's your idea?
You can hit your API endpoint from your browser or from your server via a Server Connect action. I do it quite often to reuse functionality.
@Teodor Right now im attempting to have the user click a button which makes a request to a server sending json data… then have the server make an api request to a 3rd party using the data sent from the front end. The return that data from the api request back to the frontend to display to the user… ex. A user want airline rates… I want a user to fill out a form with desired flight info date destination etc. make a request to the server with that data and then use the response to curate a list of rates from some 3rd party api/api’s then return that data to the client to display to the user.
That is totally doable with Wappler. I have a very similar use case.
