Auto import data into bubble

Need help Database

Hi,

Is there a way to auto import data from another application (mysql) into bubbles database, so the front end can be used as a live visualization board?

Thanks in advance

Instead of importing the data, you might consider simply accessing it from Bubble using the SQL Database Connector. Just go to the Plugins tab of your app and search for it.

Hey Stuart,

This should be possible using the SQL Database Connector plugin from Bubble, poll for updates every now and then.

Other options are:

  1. Use Python to poll the database (or use a trigger) for updates and send the data to Bubble using an API (f.i. the Python library FastAPI).
  2. Use an integation platform like Zapier, Integromat or n8n to poll the database for updates and send the data to Bubble using an API.
