Variable with JSON, connected to many inputs. How to edit just the binded value?
I have many inputs connected to a variable JSON.

Example 2 inputs first name and last name and the variable:

{
"last-name": "Doe",
"first-name": "John"
}

Inputs are binded to the first and last name.

When editing one input it change all the inputs in undefined. Why is not editing just the binded value (for example: first-name)?

Need help with multi-image upload to Xano
I can successfully upload single files to Xano using @NoCode ProCode's technique of "get"ting item [0] from a file picker file list.

I'm trying the same thing with multiple image files, but no matter how I format the data going to Xano I get some kind of error message, most often "Value is not properly formed."

The Xano API endpoint is a POST request with a single file resource param called image_files which is set to a list (not single).

In Toddle, I use a file picker component (really just a file input field) which returns a filelist just fine, and I extract the event/target/files from that, which gives me an array of files. The API call wraps the file list in an object with the name matching what Xano is expecting, is not proxied, and is multipart/form-data, with no authentication.

I think the answer is somewhere in how I prep and wrap the data from the file input field, but I'm stuck.... 😢

Any help / pointers much appreciated!

404 when calling a google drive url
Hi

I am creating a url dynamically and then calling it via a custom action. If I try to open it via the custom action I get a 404.

Then, if I copy the url, paste into a new window, close it and then open via toddle it opens.

I presume this is to do with authentication, but it only opens that document. Trying another does not open.

Does Toddle automatically proxy/hide API calls on the frontend?
Hi!

When I call OpenAI's API from Bubble.io, the platform seems to automatically hide the API key as I can't find it on the frontend. Other bubble devs I know also confirmed.

Is it the same here in Toddle? I followed a tutorial to create an image gen app and the teacher said we should run the call through a backend. While I understand that's best practice, is it required?

Thanks!

Data Not Loading on Branch Link Despite Working in Editor
I'm facing an unexpected issue. In the development environment, in the editor, all the data is displayed correctly (as shown in the video). However, when I open the branch link, the data is not loading. At first, I thought it might be an error with the APIs, but I checked, and they are working correctly in the editor. Additionally, there are no errors in the Xano log.

https://ooo.mmhmm.app/watch/z_W7G1dtaoGA4dwUIRRZ0b

I've also noticed that no events are being triggered—clicking buttons, inputs, and other interactions aren't working at all.

I'm not sure how to resolve this. Could you help me figure out what might be happening?

Thank you!

If I do not select a value in a dropdown assuming the first value will be selected by default
I have a dropdown in my screen. I did not give "Choose something" as a first value. Instead gave my 3 actual values. I've written change event on select and I'm able to pass the selected value if only I manually select a value, even the first one.

Is there any way where the first value is passed by default. I can think of two options:

1. Use a IF condition and if the value is null, use the first value else use the selected value
2. Add "Choose a value" as the first entry and if value = null, then return an error

What's the general strategy to handle value setting in drop down?

Help with setting up magic link sign-up (Supabase)
Hey, toddle community. I'm currently working on setting up magic link auth via Supabase using the API but struggling to set the session cookies.

Obviously, until you use the magic link, you're not authenticated, so I need a way of setting the session cookie before I redirect the user to the homepage. The URL contains the access token, so am I retrieving it from there?

I have the hacky auth check in a component on the homepage to ensure that if the user is not authenticated then they're redirected to the login page but I'm not sure when (and the best way) to grab the access token. When using email and password, you're setting it as soon as you do the login API call but that's not the case for magic link.

Send list of UUIDs to xano
How do I send a list/an array of UUIDs to xano using a POST request? My array is stored in a variable but when I try to send it to my db it says that the input is not a valid UUID. I tried sending it in the body and as a query. It works when testing it in xano.

Thanks

Add and remove product tags/ add to or remove from array
Lets say I have a xano db table for products and another one for tags. One field in the products table includes a list of table references to the tags table. On default the list for tags in the products table is empty.

In Toddle I have a form to add a new product and the form includes all the available tags that are rendered based on my get_tags api. Each tag has an id, a name and a boolean called 'added' that is always false (just to make it easier for myself). On change (I use checkboxes with labels) I want to add the tag and when I uncheck I want to remove it. Obviously I don´t want to add or remove any tag if the product form is not completely filled out (name, description, etc) because the product is gets created on form submit.
How would you go about this?

My approach was:
1) create a variable called tags_array which is just an empty array
2) render the checkboxes based on the api and also set the value based on the api
3) try (emphasis on try!) to and or remove the tags_id based on the value of the checkbox.

The problem is that my formula adds tags but doesn´t remove them when I uncheck the checkbox. How can I solve this or has anyone a better approach?

Thanks

Practices for creating test data for dynamic context while working in the editor.
I have tried to create a simple global formula for providing test data to components that rely on dynamic context data. I'm using this function for things like API calls, local storage, and page parameters to have some 'dummy data' while working on my components. My question is: would this be considered bad practice, or are there alternative approaches I should consider?

Alternative to Xano for small tools
Hi!

Is there any alternative to Xano that's GDPR compliant without the $99/m price tag? I love it, but the cost is a bit steep for what I'm trying to do now (basically a wrapper for an API, but I need to auth requests).

I'm happy to pay for Xano once this scales, but would love to know if there's an alternative in the meantime.

(Xano's free plan is not GDPR compliant, afaik)
