APIs has quite some broad usage, but I think you use it like I use it: an external API, something not coming from your Bubble application.
Well, it doesn’t matter, the solution is the same.
There are 2 options. If it’s a small list (less than 90 items):
- when the user clicks on a button (or you could define any other trigger),
- it schedules a API workflow on a list
- The API you call saves each item in the way you want.
If it’s a large list, step 2 would be:
- it schedules a recursive API workflow.
I’ve wrote a little about it here: Schedule API workflow on a list - does the list have a limit? - #23 by rico.trevisan
I’ve assumed quite a few things; did I answer your question?
Well, actually, now that I’m thinking out loud about APIs, your Bubble application cannot return data from an API Endpoint. If you try that on the frontend, the only thing it returns is a boolean if it scheduled the API or not.
