Xano + FF 😍This is hands down my favorite stack! For those that don't know, Xano is a SCALABLE nocode backend (imagine if Airtable and Zapier had a baby that exceeded their parents expectations 😂). You can do incredible things when you pair these two tools together! Also, it looks like the FF team fixed API group headers! 🙌

Please make figma extension, you will make development not just 10x faster, but 50x faster

[@user-es3sn7hi9m]

them need more money for this

[@soraclemedia]

@@user-es3sn7hi9m Bravo Studio do it already. FlutterFlow seems to be levels ahead.

Flutterflow + Xano = Seriously Match Made In Heaven😍 Please continue to create more videos on Xano integration🙌

[@canal10emartes]

Thanks so much for the video! You could make a video teaching how to use the Progress Bar and its interaction with other pages of an App: This will help me a lot. Thank you!

[@ololand102]

the quality of this tutorial is outstanding!

[@onecarwood]

I have just found FF and this is what I thought Webflow would become. FF is awesome.

[@alea621]

BROOO!! u are the best teacher FF !!!! make more videos !!! I like u voice and your way of teaching! thx a lot!! slowly and claire

[@MrBenjo000]

How would you suggest securely storing/accessing API keys so that bad actors can't get them? Such as the openai keys etc. I'd love to see a production ready tutorial with auth and security best practices for backend integration 🙏

[@FlutterFlow]

Great Question. Toggle on the "Make Private" in the advanced settings. That will route the call through a cloud function so the header values are not exposed. Your API keys are typically set in the "Authentication: Bearer ${apiKeyOrTokenHere}" header, and by just toggling on "Make Private" in the API settings, you'll automatically get the benefit of securely routing via a Google Cloud Function.

[@MrBenjo000]

Thanks @@FlutterFlow team, that's great! So this would only work with a Firebase cloud function setup?

[@FlutterDev1337]

​@@FlutterFlowas long as the key is stored in the frontend (pesisted on the device and encrypted or not), the user can still see the API key exposed in the payload of the network request. You can try this yourself to verify. Storing your keys in the backend (as Firebase secrets, etc) is the way to go.

[@FlutterFlow]

@@FlutterDev1337 correct. updated.

[@LevelHorizon]

How did you produce the token? Shouldn't tokens expire and be refreshed periodically? If so, hard-coding them into the headers doesn't make sense. Can you explain the approach please?

[@AlexMusatkin]

Thanks. Please make more tutorials on API. Integration with to OpenAI, Google/MSFT/Amazon APIs, etc.

[@Classtrack]

How can we add before action and after action while making any API request ? For example : Globally in all the API calls if API sends 401 (Unauthorized) status then it should redirect to some login page.

[@alexmartos9100]

I am wondering the same @FlutterFlow

[@ivantodorov]

I now love to setup API calls.

[@almahmeed]

Excellent video. I am using wordpress REST API to create new users on wordpress. I have created my customer route which is enabling me to insert the users with no issues. On the other hand, I would like to add the profile image and following the instructions in the video, i should select multipart rather than JSON ,, so how would you recommend doing it in one step if possible?

[@vineeth.vijayan314]

I have tried the team Api but when i pass my access_token in header as a group variable it doesn't work in the group API how can I make it dynamic?

[@jazielwayne2178]

This is great. What about Firebase, please if a tutorial can be done on how to connect social media APIs to a FlutterFlow app (example; TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, KZbin... etc) 🙏🙏🙏

[@eml9147]

agreed this is sorely needed

[@David_tommy]

I wished I understand 😭😭😭😭😭 I really need a beginner crash course on flutterflow, someone please help me out 🙏🙏

documentation is better. I also recommend talking with llms like google gemini and chatgpt because you can ask basic questions

[@0Amshalem]

Hey great! One question - how do I connect 2 API's endpoints? For example, I have API for posts and API for comments. How do you connect/binding the post ID to the specific comments list?? @flutterflow?

[@growthmania17]

Forget about connecting the APIs, one sec. I suppose that u have in your database each Comments : a PostID as a reference to each of your posts. So In your PostDetailPage, create a global variable for that PostID (or maybe u already have it in a paramater). Then you make 2 api call : first your specific Post (not the all post endpoint) and second, his Comments, by the same postID variable.😊 I think it make sense, right ??

[@0Amshalem]

Thank you for the help, I try to understand what is mean not all the post endpoint, because I have a list with all the post the pass parameters with PostID, in the PostDetailPage I add Backend quary for Comments (that come from different API call) and get Null because I didn't create children and all the variables get Custom JSON path@@growthmania17

[@ololand102]

Is there a way to increase TimeOut in POST API calls in FlutterFlow? My call to OpenAI Assistant takes longer than 60 seconds because of the Code Interpreter taking a long time to generate a chart. I searched for the solution and even started chatting with your online support but have not found a solution yet.

HOW TO RECEIVE RESPONCE FROM THE API. EXample when I send payment request then I want to capture the responce from the Api , something like a webhook

[@kevsphil6531]

thank you so much. this video helps me alot

[@nicolaimagnussen1914]

Looks like there might be a bug, its first when you have multiple items in a list, that FF understands its a list, even though the json has one object inside the list.

[@AmitKumar-ct8df]

hah what are the odd. one thing you picked up for an example is the widget which comes with an widget state property. How about using iimage widget which does not come with an wideget state

[@mrdiin.dev_]

Hi. Great stuff ! Is it possible to import a Postman collection as well ?

[@FlutterFlow]

Yes, but you have to convert it first. You can use this: kevinswiber.github.io/postman2openapi/

where you save your apis?

[@mistyorpin1020]

When I follow the directions exactly, the first call to generate children works fine. But the next call (to the body instead of to a path) generates a "NoSuchMethodError:'toList" error.

[@shreeram8859]

Yes for me too. How to resolve it???

[@shreeram8859]

Found the error. Try to parse the JSON according to your JSON body. It works perfectly fine for my now.
