Custom Actions not fetching all the data

[ArijitDas]

Does anyone know if it is possible to fetch multiple rows using custom actions. It seems it only stores the first element of the array

Hi @ArijitDas, welcome to the community!

Adola currently doesn’t support creating multiple records from a JSON array with custom Actions.

The good news is that there is a workaround with external collections, once you have succefully set up your Url endpoint you can “filter” your list by parsing parameters.

It’s no perfect and in some use cases this can’t be emplemented, but until the devs find a solution that’s all we have

Hi Rae ,

Thanks for the alternative but the main problem here is external API collection does not support dynamic bearer token allocation which in turn expose lot of unrestricted data .

@ArijitDas

API collection does not support dynamic bearer token

This issue can be addressed to the devs, in the meantime would your app’s API work for you?

The Adalo API

Hi Rae,

I am getting error response

400 Bad request

Request failed with status code 500

I am using the correct bearer token , appid and collectionid

Hi Rae ,

It works fine for internal collections but not for external collections

First, did you correctly set up your Header Auth?

Secondly, if you are expecting a JSON array response did you set up your key?

[ArijitDas]

Hi Rae,

I am able to fetch data within the application but not as api call.Yes header and everything is set correctly which is the reason the data is saved as external collection.

Sorry for the confusion, I thought your error was within the application
I haven’t personally tested the external API yet as this feature was recently released by the devs.

I’ll check this out over the weekend to see if there are any bugs on my side.
For reference…are you using Postman to test your API calls?

[Devops]

Hi again, just tested the external API on and all is working fine

Did you correctly follow the steps in your collections API Documentation?
