Hello bubblers!
Does anyone know if it’s possible to send data from an external API from a page to another
Just like the way data from the DB can be sent from a page to another and it will be called as “current page” bla bla
Maybe using cookies?
You can also use Current user with a field of the API type

Thanks alot for our response! Can you give more details please?
So I have a RG that displays some info directly from the API but there’s a button on the repeating group that send’s the user to another page (using parameters) with more info about the current cell that is clicked.
Normally, the groups on the page we are sending to is to take the data of the current cell that was clicked.
The issue is that I don’t know how to do that when the data is directly coming from the API.
Anyway you can help ?
Thanks! @Jici
I would go for idea of getting the data from API changing custom state, which later can be transferred as a parameter.
As if you call the API while going to a new page, it may not wait for the response (correct me if I am wrong) or be very slow/long depending on data you fetch.

If you want to send a single item, there’s probably a unique ID that you can send as url parameters and do a GET request to fetch the data of a single item.
But, if you want to save on WU, the best is to save in cookie (using a plugin) or save to current user in a field of the API type. When you initialize the API Connector in DATA, Bubble will create a type of this API Connector. This can be set as a field type exactly like if this was another DB type. Just use make change to current user API Field = Current cell API data
Why not to call a JSON from the page you need?)
It may seems to me that i dont understand a question…
