FAQ for connections in Apps
What is the difference between a shared connection and a personal connection?
Personal connections are configured in personal folders. While designing your app, you can select a connection from your personal workspace. At runtime, this connection becomes unavailable to other users.
Shared connections are the connections which reside in a shared folder. As a runtime user, you can also use the same connection, provided you have access to the shared folder.
How can I get a raw response from the API?
You can use the RawResponse property in the Response object. This property stores the string output from the API. To access the raw response, use the following expression:
<PageName>.<ControlName>.<RuleName>.Response.RawResponse
<PageName>.<ControlName>.<RuleName>.Response.RawResponse
Can I use the result of a connection API Rule and bind it to a table control?
Yes, you can convert ListItems into ListSource using the ToListSource extension method.
You can write this expression in the data source of the Table control:
<PageName>.<ControlName>.<RuleName>.Response.Value.ToListSource
<PageName>.<ControlName>.<RuleName>.Response.Value.ToListSource
If you cannot find the ToListSource method, this means the value type is not a List type.
Where do I get more details on individual connectors?
To get more details on individual connectors, access the Integration Services User Guide documentation page.
The left sidebar contains a list of pages containing information for each officially supported connector, its API, and authentication methods.
Can I onboard my own APIs? Can I use them via connections in Apps?
Yes, you can integrate custom APIs using the Connector Builder.
Can I capture an API error at runtime?
Yes. To capture a runtime error thrown by an API, use the following expression in a control:
<PageName>.<ControlName>.<API>.Error
<PageName>.<ControlName>.<API>.Error
