Hi
I am trying to figure out how to use web API with Thunkable X and how to extract the data from JSON.
Can you please provide an example to how to do so.
Thank you

Thanks @adham!
Here are two examples from the Thunkable Docs:

~~The docs should make it clear that the WebAPI component is only partially implemented though… it’s only capable of sending get parameters (headers and body go empty).~~
Found out that nodejs express server will only interpret the request correctly if we set the Content-Type header manually in Thunkable (doesn’t send the content type header at all if we don’t set it).
I wouldn’t call this a bug, but it’s definitely something that I think should be warned or something…
