Hi, need help in bringing ‘Type of Content’ for Page element from external db. I don’t find options in the drop down. It shows tables only from Bubble db. Is there a way to pull in from external database. I need this in order to send data from one page to another. Please help.
The bubble id of the thing is sent to the page when you set the page type like this. Probably thats why, only Bubble things are there.
If you want a custom structure, you have send them as URL parameters and in the target page, you have to get the data from Page URL and compute whatever corresponding API result based on this URL data.
Ya, I’m able to send it as URL parameters. But since the parameters are User-ids, thought it would not be safe to send it over URL.
What type of external database?
I’m using URL Parameters, and I am retrieving the data from URL. But how do I set a custom ‘Type of content’. Can you give me an example.
You don’t need to set type of content. You can just pass a parameter in the URL in the previous page, and parse it in the second page (by using get data from page URL
).
