Good afternoon!
As you may know, Bubble backend is only able to receive POST requests, which can become a limitation when working with webhooks and be difficult to easily handle.
After struggling ourself sending with this issue and seeing that this seemed to be a common issue we decided to release a tool that transforms GET request to POST request.
Is it made entirely using Bubble and Xano.
Link
Installation
-
First, create an account on the platform
-
Create a new app on the platform
Make sure to use your correct Bubble app name. More information on how to find it can be found here.
- Activate the Bubble app converter
- You’re good to go!
The platform will generate a unique link that you can now use to forward your request.
Example request
The platform automatically generates the structured URL, no need to worry about all of this. The following is just for reference.
Let’s consider the following API workflow “my_backend_workflow” previously accessible from the following URL:
https://mybubbleapp
/version-test/api/1.1/wf/my_backend_workflow
If I want to send a GET request to my Bubble endpoint called “my_backend_workflow” on the test version of my app, here’s the new URL to use:
Bubble Helper URL
/convert/Bubble Helper ID
/Version
/my_backend_workflow
?parameter1=value,…
Pricing and financing
Bubble Helper is made for the community for a non-profit purpose and financed by Ottho.
On your dashboard, you will find the Transparency section which publicly indicates the platform costs and revenues.
We will use extra generated money to develop new features and improve the platform’s stability and performance.
Note that we’d also offer unlimited plan for all non-profit purpose or developing country based apps
Regarding the pricing, here is it:
Additional features
-
Temporarily redirect all your requests to the Bubble “initialize” endpoint in order to define your data.
-
Forward the request adding your API key to the header to authenticate the request on Bubble.
-
Only forward the requests that include the following API key
