FAQ

Which integrations did AppMaster add in June?

AppMaster added 11 integrations in June, including Discord, Intercom API, Gmail API, iCalendar, GetResponse, Maps, Crypto, and Google, Apple, Facebook, and LinkedIn sign-in options.

What new Business Process blocks are available?

The new blocks let you raise errors, read CSV, XLS, and XLSX files, change text case, trim spaces, replace text, extract characters, create hashes, and write entries to application logs.

Can I copy a Business Process?

You can now clone an existing Business Process. This helps when a new workflow needs a similar structure, since you can copy it and adjust the details.

What characters can I use in Business Process names?

Business Processes now use Latin characters only when you create them. This restriction keeps process names consistent across projects.

What happens if my Business Process has invalid blocks?

AppMaster marks invalid blocks and connections visually inside custom Business Processes. It also marks the full process as invalid and does not generate its content until you fix the errors.

Where can I view logs from a generated app?

The platform added a log page for generated applications. Use it to review application logs while you test behavior or investigate an issue.

What changed for API endpoint path parameters?

AppMaster added parameter binding for endpoint values that come from the URL path. This makes it easier to work with routes that include values such as an item ID.

What improved in the mobile app designer?

The mobile designer now includes widgets for linked models, along with hide and show actions for all widgets. These changes give mobile screens more control over related data and widget visibility.

How does project sharing work on the Free Plan?

Free Plan projects can be shared with up to two users. You also cannot share a project with an email address that has not been confirmed.

Can Free Plan users download source code or binaries?

No. The June changes state that Free Plan users cannot download generated source code or binaries. You can still build applications within the platform under the plan's limits.
