Well…the issue actually does appear to be making syncronous client side API calls…Bubble times out the request in some cases.
What I doing is following your advice from this thread: Dynamic input API URI segments
I was able to successfully get data back for a while…but as I made more calls with this structure, especially with images, I started getting the timeout error referenced above quite often.
When I am not required to dynamically insert the ‘unit id’ in the URI segment, it seems to work, but not if I need to dynamically insert the URI segment.
Any advice? It seems to be an issue with Bubble using Firebase - Firebase doesn’t like making multiple client side calls.
