APIs, scraping, and mobile

Quick answers on external APIs, web scraping, and native apps.

Do you support APIs?

Yes — especially well-documented ones. For newer or niche APIs, paste the documentation into the chat so Floot can learn the endpoints. See Connecting external services.

How should I do web scraping with Floot?

Use a dedicated scraping service such as ScrapingBee and have your Floot app call it. Running scrapers directly from a serverless backend is fragile and gets blocked quickly.

Can Floot build native mobile apps?

Yes. Floot builds real iOS and Android apps from your project — installable on a device and submittable to the App Store and Google Play. This is available on the top-tier plan; see Creating mobile apps.

If you just want one-tap access without an app store, add the project to a home screen instead.

Can my app run background work or realtime updates?

Yes to both. Scheduled cron jobs, background jobs, and WebSocket-based realtime are all built in — see What's built in.
