Introduction

Welcome to RapidAPI. RapidAPI let’s you build the backend for your app easily - without writing a single line of code. With RapidAPI you can use blocks to construct your backend logic. From saving to a database to proccesing payments - blocks can do anything!

How it’s all started?

We were at a hackathon when we realized all the teams were spending hours building the same backend logic: installing DBs, writing user signup logic, updating packages and more. All these teams were spending hours and hours - basically doing the same thing. That’s what we’ve built RapidAPI for. With RapidAPI, you get all the basic backend functions deliverd to you as blocks. All you have to do is drag and drop them and you get a fully functional backend - hosted in the cloud. Rather than spending days on backend development - do it in minutes.

The Backend

RapidAPI is an online platform that lets you create a back end for your web or mobile app without writing a single line of code. Every web or mobile app has two parts:

Front end: Runs on the user’s device. In charge of showing the user interface (UI) and reacting to the users actions. For example: showing a button and then reacting to a click on it.
Back end: Runs on servers. In charge of storing data (e.g. user details, product lists, etc…) and performing actions (authenticating users, sending push notifications, etc…).

When using RapidAPI, you construct the back end logic using blocks. Each block represents a basic action done in the back end. These are things like saving to a database, sending a notification or accessing an API. The back end is hosted on the RapidAPI servers and you can use it from your app.

How it works

Your backend is built out of backend actions. Each action performs a certain task for your app. Examples of actions can be:

Sign up: register a user to your app.
Sign in: verify a user in your app.
Send message: send a message from one user to another in your app.
Purchase product: pay for a product and mark it as purchased in your app.

Each one of these backend actions is built out of blocks. Each block performs a basic task within an action. Let’s take a sign up action for example. We’ll first want to make sure that the user sends a valid email address. For that, we’ll use the verify.email block. This block will get the email passed in the request to that action and check if it’s valid. It’ll have 2 outcomes - these are things that can happen - either the email is valid, or it’s not. If it’s not - we’ll return an error message. If it is, we’ll check the password using a similar verify.passwordLength block. If that’s valid, we’ll save to the database - and so on… That way, we’ll build the logic of the action. It’ll end up looking like that:

Getting started

Let’s create the basic sign up backend action the get the ropes of using the system.

To begin, head over to https://rapidapi.com and sign up.

Creating your first project

A project in RapidAPI is basically the backend of a single app. It contains all the backend actions for that app, as well as it’s database. Let’s start by creating a new project.

Creating a database collection

Now that we have a project, create a database collection that will store all the users that sign up. Do so by heading over to the database tab and clicking Create New Collection. Name the collection users and create it.

You’ll now notice you have a fully functional database collection. In our next step, we’ll build a backend action that saves to it.

To create the sign up backend action head over to the ENDPOINTS tab. Click the Backend Action button and create the new backend action named sign up. Once it is created, open it by clicking Edit.

Within the editor, we’ll first drag in the verify.email block to verify that the email supplied by the user is correct. As the parameter to be checked, we’ll use #body.email. This will be replaced with the value sent under ‘email’ in the call to that backend action.

You’ll notice that the verify block has 2 outcomes:

is: The passed value is a valid email.
not: The passed value is not a valid email.

If it’s not a valid email, we’ll use the response.sendMessage block to send back an error message saying The email sent is not valid, with a 400 code.

In case of success we will want to save the new user (e.g. email address) to the database (in real life we will probably get a password and name and want to verify them, but it’s a very similar proccess).

For that we will drag in the database.save block which saves a new row into the database. We will set it to save to the users collection we’ve created earlier and define a row with one column - email. The value will be #body.email - the same value we verified in the previous step.

You may notice the database.save block has 2 possible outcomes: success and error. In both cases we’ll use the response.sendMessage block:

success: we’ll send an OK message with a 201 status code (201 usually stands for “record created”).
error: we’ll send a Server error message with a 500 status code (500 usually means “server error”).

You by now have a fully working sign up backend action. Next up we’ll try it up and see how it can be connected to a mobile / web app.

Trying it out

Now that you are the proud owner of a backend action, you will probably want to take it to a spin and see how it works, right? To do just that you can use the run button on the top right corner of the editor. It’ll open up the run panel. You should go to the body tab where we can set the body parameters. Create an email parameter and put a valid email in it. Press run and you’ll see the success message.

You can also go back to the database tab in the project page and see the new email saved to the users collection. You can also try putting an invalid email and see that you are getting the appropriate error message.

Implementing it in your app

Every backend action in RapidAPI is in-fact an HTTP endpoint. That means that you can make requests to it from any platfrom (including iOS, Android and Web Pages) using standard HTTP Request frameworks.

To make life easier, we have compiled pre written code snippets that connect to the backend actions. To access them, go back to the Endpoints tab in the project page, select the backend action that you want to connect to and click on the Code Snippet button. In the popup, select the platform and proggraming languge and copy the code snippet.

Notice that if you are using #body.SOMETHING in your action, the code snippet will have that SOMETHING in place already, so you’ll just need to replace it’s value.

Here are some more in-depth guides on mobile integrations:

System Overview

Overview Page

The overview page will show you the following information:

Number of Backend Actions (Endpoints), Numbers (For sending SMS messages), And Databases you’ve used in your project.
Basic Tutorials.
Collaborators - Here you can share your project with other teammates.
Your Latest Activity.
Basic Statistics.

Endpoints Page

The endpoints page is the core of your app. Through this page you can create the backend actions for your app, create static pages based on HTML, CSS and JS and upload files.

Web Pages

By clicking on Web Pages you will be able to create a static webpage that will be host on our servers. The URL of the web page will be structured this way:

http://[Your-Project-Name].imrapid.io/[The-Web-Page Name]

For example: http://expert-bluewhale-loli.imrapid.io/index

Files

Using this tool you can upload any file you want to our servers and GET it later.

Backend Actions

By clicking on ‘Backend Actions’ you will be able to create a backend action, for example: Sign_up backend action (Endpoint).

Give it a name that will describe it the best and go edit it. To create your endpoint use the 'Edit’ button right after you’re creating it, this will take you forward to the Endpoints (Backend Actions) Editor page =>

Endpoints Editor

The editor is the core of our platform, using this tool you will be able to create any logic tree based any API we support.

The editor is divided into the tools you need to create the endpoints:

eBay API

You can connect to the eBay API using the RapidAPI system. This let’s you do things like querying products and prices, placing bids and more…

To use the eBay API you need to first obtain an API key. You may obtain that key set from the eBay developer portal. to start, sign up for a developer account. Once in the account you’ll be immidiatly prompted to create a new app. Give your app a name and choose production. You may be required to enter additional personal details.

Once you are finished your app will be created and you’ll see 3 different keys:

App ID - the main key we’ll use
Dev ID
Cert ID

Take note of these as you’ll need to put them in the eBay API blocks to connect to the eBay API.

ebay.findItemsByKeyword

This block let’s you query the entire eBay product base and find products based on search keywords.

Use Case: if you want to suggest products your users may need - you can present some options from eBay. For example, a camping app may present tents as users will probably need those.

Parameter	Use	Description
FreeShippingOnly	`true` or `false`	If true, the block will only look for products with free shipping.
MaxPrice	Number / empty	Will limit the price of the found products (in USD). Leave empty for unlimited price.
appId	App ID	Your App ID generated in the eBay Developer Portal (see the beggining of the section for reference)
data	`to`	The object the returned items will be saved to. You can use `#to` to get the found items.
domainName	Digital_cameras	Catalog Name
error	‘e’	If there is an error, the error message will ve saved there (so you can use `#e` to see the message)
keyword	`iPhone 6`, `Harry potter box set`	The keywords you are searching for

If there is success, use #t to use the returned items. It’ll hold an array with all the found items. Each item will look like:
