Hello I wanted to know if anyone uses / knows tools to query Firebase in an easier way. Saving and reading data with Thunkable is simple but if I need to extract data for an external system it is not easy. Thank you Andrea ---

no Integromat e Zapier doesn’t have Firebase integration. I’d like to know where Thunk users store data over 2.500 rows … in Airtable this is the free limit. Firebase is a Json engine and not easy to query. So where do you store App data expecially with huge amount of data? Thanks Andrea ---

I will be working on providing you a tutorial to show how to get a 400,000 row, free solution 😉 #lowcode ---

My previous solution won’t work for our needs ☹ my idea was to tie in backendless as the backend. That won’t work. Now my plan is geared towards an “extension” that will allow you to query Firebase firestore. I have a working JavaScript example. Now I need to add in the thunkable code! Be on the lookout for it here > **[Go LowCode with BA Studios](https://jaredgibb.github.io/)** > > BA studios have spent time learning and creating simple JS scripts for you to learn from or tie into your Thunkable Apps. Two of the “live projects” will be turned into thunkable extensions I’m thinking. ---

Use the export option in the database menu in Firebase console. ---

That looks very interesting. It’ll need to support more than postgres to be useful, but is this something you can integrate into Thunkable’s future? ---
