It allows you to create a duplicate of the App: Logins google sheet that will be visible and usable in glide. Normally those special log sheets are not visible to glide, even though they create and fill those sheets.

This used to be the way we automated a user profile sheet prior to Glide creating user profile functionality.

Not sure if someone know this, I found light weight animated images (not gif) which works in webpage and apps with embed.
You can easily edit it in its own editor.

Could be added.
I use it to generate QR code’s for a loyalty card app and just use the row id to generate a custom QR code for each user.

Hey Pratik,

Have you tried adding these animation files or gifs into your Glide where it comes in between 2 tabs or while something is loading etc ? It will be really cool to use them to show during wait time or when page is loading.

I used NoCodeAPI recently to create a simple API to add and read rows from a Google Sheet.

So this makes it easy to turn your Google Sheet into an API without this nonsense

Thoughts on NoCodeAPI vs. Zapier

Haven’t quite considered the benefit of using NoCodeAPI over Zapier / Integromat though… :thinking:

Update: I guess it’s easier when the platform doesn’t integrate with Zapier. For the project mentioned above, I was working with Thunkable which only has access to APIs. For adding rows, I could have done webhooks I think, but for reading a list of data, definitely needed an Search API that returned JSON.

Wow, it seems great @Darren_Alderman !

Do you have a simple exemple of how you’ve achieved/build an API and connected in an app?

is anyone have tried placid using glideapp? is there any lesson of this subject?

Wow! Very useful and also looks cheap
