Web API not working when I use a GET request on cellular data. When do a GET request on my wifi it works perfectly.

Anyone else having this problem with their API blocks? My error comes back “Network request failed” when I use cellular data.

I feel this is an issue in Thunkable as I can get the result using wifi.

It’s working for me on WiFi and cellular data on an iPhone 11 in Thunkable Live.

Here’s a demo in case anyone wants to check this for themselves:

On a side note, how do I share a project from the new drag-and-drop interface? I don’t see a share button.

Thank you. It may be api server side.

I share my projects through the Home Screen. Don’t know if that helps.

You’re welcome. Do you mean from the Projects page at this link: [Thunkable](https://x.thunkable.com/projects)? I still can’t find a share button. Hmm…

I thought it was on the home screen but it isn’t. I can’t find the share button either. I also can’t find “Live test as a responsive web app” with the new drag-and-drop features.

Beta has no share button. You can go to your project detail page and copy the url
