Severe lack of Mobile App Documentation

Mobile Apps
#61

Hello, all!

I agree with most of the criticism about lack of docs for apps. Having said that, I evaluated Wappler to make an alternative made by myself to the app that my app engineer was coding for my project (which I already had developed in web). My idea was not to rely so much on him, should things go sour. Anyway, the app he’s coding is made with Ionic/Angular/Cordova.

First, with Wappler, I could not find a way to connect to the REST APIs, which is a must when you want to access or modify data on the server, be it database, images, files or anything. Does anyone have a clue on how to define (in Wappler) a https REST API connection and access this REST? (sorry, my Wappler trial ended but I’d happily buy it if I could do this).

Thank you all in advance, you’re a great community.

Cristian.

There is a specific API connector component both in App Connect and Server connect as well as OAuth authorisation connector. It supports every API I have needed to use as long as they support json responses

I have interfaced with
Stripe
Amadeus
Google Maps
Google Drive
Paypal
but to mention a few within the last few weeks

Hey there… thank you VERY MUCH.
Can you point me to where I can create an API connector component? Maybe detail the step by step process? I’ve found that Wappler is excellent but its UI is not that intuitive for me.
Thanks in advance, I’d really appreciate it.
Best regards,

Cristian.

Lots of examples on the forum, Perhaps a start would be the ecommerce section of the forum which has example for using Stripe

My thoughts exactly.
