Genuine review from a paid student: Matt is one of the best educators in Bubble sphere - to Matt, your courses (Airdev and personal) accelerated my career as a PM to the point where I can quickly create an MVP for my team without having to go through lengthy brief meetings. This cuts down the prototyping time 10x Just wanna show appreciation. Thanks so much

Welcome back😅 Am currently struggling to get an API call on stable diffusion image to image. 😢😢😢 Do you have any tutorial on that?

I have a question regarding the Private Field. Big fan of your teaching, by the way - beginner student of your Thinkit-Buildit course. If the Query String Check Box is ticked which means that info is placed into the URL that's being sent. So if they Private Check Box is ALSO checked (both Private & Query String check boxes are ticked) HOW does it keep the information for that field PRIVATE? It's within the URL that's being sent back. Is the private information somehow encoded so it's disguised in the URL? If this was discussed in the video, my apology, maybe let me know the time code where you cover this.

[@mneary]

Hey Jon! It’s a great question. Private simply means that the input for that parameter isn’t exposed within the bubble editor and in the client-side code. All api calls are made from the backend (Bubble handles this for you) so private just means the value is static and inserted on the backend itself. This article explains it well manual.bubble.io/help-guides/infrastructure/security/api-security/api-connector-security#parameters

[@thinkjon]

That's what is confusing. IF the Query String is NOT exposed in the ULR, then HOW is the parameter being read? Sounds like invisible ink of some sort (ha) @@mneary

[@mneary]

@@thinkjon it is exposed in the URL. Think of what you setup in the API connector as simply the setup instructions for an HTTP request which is made from Bubble's server. That request includes your parameter, it's just not exposed in your app's client side code (nor the editor interface).

[@thinkjon]

When we tick the PRIVATE checkbox, the parameter will be exposed in the URL, but NOT in the client side web browser INSPECT code. Is this correct? So anyone who understands this can simply find it in the URL. This is not private, so WHY do they call it private? @@mneary
