I’m looking for advice – and I realize this isn’t really a Thunkable question but it’s certainly related.
I’m storing data that users add to my app by saving it to Firebase and a local data source in Thunkable and displaying it to the user in a Data Viewer List (DVL). I dream of DVLs that connect to cloud data sources…
But my problem is actually going the other direction. I’d like to be able to share the data users are creating in the app in a Google Sheet or Airtable or really any other user-friendly format. I realize I can create rows in a database so that I always have the same data in multiple locations. I actually prefer not to do that if possible. Because the moment I change the Firebase structure, I have to then modify the columns in my Google Sheet/Airtable and then I have to replace all of the Data Source blocks in my project and then I have to reconnect dozens of blocks that get displaced, etc.
So if I just keep the data in Firebase which is so much faster and easier to work with (for me)…
What’s the best way to display JSON data from Firebase? Does Firebase have a pre-formatted web page I don’t know about? Beyond my current method of manually exporting JSON, converting it to a CSV and importing it into a Google Sheet, any suggestions?
I don’t need the JSON data to be displayed within the app. It’s perfectly fine if it’s a third-party cloud solution that’s browser-based.
