Hello Gliders!

We’ve got a couple events coming up for Glide Experts and no-code pros in the next week, along with another batch of platform improvements.

Let’s get into it.

## How to efficiently ship 300+ client apps

The LowCode team has shipped 300+ projects in the last four years for clients like Forbes, Coca-Cola, and American Express. [Join our session](https://www.glideapps.com/events/efficiently-ship-300-custom-apps) with LowCode founder @eltintero to learn how they deliver Glide apps on time and on budget.

Nice to see Glide is at work 🙂  
If I can suggest something nested Json (without stringify) would be a nice future feature.  
I had to use a JS function inside code(column) to wrap it up (Json.parse()).  
Take care, François

Isn’t the JSON Template column already doing the same thing?

Can’t wait to join @NoCodeAndy next Monday for this presentation + Q&A!

If you’ve wanted to do more with your Glide data, especially when it comes to prompt engineering and calling your favorite LLM, I’d love to see you there!

No Thinh, it does a payload between Glide and other apps (ex Make), but it still stringify the payload. Which wrecks the Json object. I had to make a custom Json object and Js function to get it right.

It does, but not with LineItems in Liquid. Like in an invoice or so.

With a JSON object it’s fine.

Then let’s reword it to “nested JSON when sent to a webhook”. Do I get that right?
