Custom Actions in Ada: describe the call instead of building it

Resources & Tutorials
1

If you’ve set up Custom Actions in Adalo classic, you know the routine: endpoint, headers, JSON body, test, map the outputs.

In Ada you describe what should happen and it does that part for you.

  1. Creates the action with the endpoint and request
  2. Stores your API key as an encrypted secret (never ships in the app)
  3. Lets you hit Run test so you can check the response before saving

It works with OpenAI and Claude, and the same way for Twilio, Slack, Google Maps or your own API.

5 Connect to any API (16x9)

Thank you for this, Dilon! Super helpful!

One question: I was testing out Ada and found out that Camera barcode scanning isn’t available. I am not sure if that’s the case.
