API to connect multiple apps to a main app

Need help APIs
1

Hi Peeps,

I’ve built the following, but now realise I’m missing a key feature which I need help to update.

  • APP A is for a broker that creates home loans and sends them to APP B (Marketplace)
  • APP B is for lenders where they can bid on the home loans they’re invited to and send their offer back to APP A

My issue is this. I’ve created two apps which work well together and share data via API using the APP Connector (API Keys), but… I’m creating a new instance (App) for each brokerage so I need APP B to recognise that when the loan has been sent from a different APP ie. C, D, E, F etc. that it sends the data back to the specific APP that sent the initial deal to it.

Does anyone know how to do this? I’m assuming there’s some method of verification required to recognise which APP the data needs to be sent to but can’t work it out.

Any help would be appreciated so much.

I guess you’ll have to build your own custom solution to manage this.

You can simply use unique identificator to identify the App that is calling.

You’ll need to keep a record of the unique identifiers of each app in App B so yu know where te call is coming from. You even can dinamically assign these IDs with an API endpoint in App B, so that i both generated a random ID and send it back to App A/C/D… for them to store it and use it in every call.

Another option would be using the API keys themselves (as long as you have unique API keys assigned to each of the apps), but I’m unsure if you can access them dinamically from a workflow in any way.
