Connected apps
Let one of your Floot apps use another's features and data — no API keys, no glue code.
Connected apps let one of your Floot apps use another's features and data directly. There are no API keys to manage and no code to write: you ask your assistant, approve the connection, and the apps work together.
What to build with it
- An admin app that runs your public site: add products, update orders and manage customers from a private back office.
- Several sites for one business: separate sites for each brand or service, all sharing the same bookings, leads and calendar.
- One dashboard for everything: a dashboard or AI assistant that pulls live numbers from every app you run.
Connect two apps
- 1
Ask your assistant
Open the app that needs the data and say what you want, for example "show orders from my shop app" or "let this admin app add products to my shop". Your assistant works out which features of the other app it needs.
- 2
Approve the connection
Floot shows you the two apps and exactly which features will be shared. Nothing connects until you click Connect.
- 3
Publish both apps
Publish the app being used first, then the app that uses it. An app only shares what it had at its last publish, so publish it again whenever your assistant adds a new feature to it.
Your connections are listed in the Apps tab of the right pane, under Apps this app uses and Apps that use this app.
Who can connect
- Only your own apps. Both apps must be on your account, and you (or a collaborator who can edit both) approve every connection.
- Only what you choose. An app shares only the features you approved, never its whole database.
- Your preview uses the live app. While you build, the preview of the connected app talks to the published version of the other app.
Private apps
A privately published app can be used by a public one. Floot warns you before you connect them: whatever the public app shows from the private one can be seen by anyone using the public app.
Disconnecting
In the Apps tab, click Disconnect (on the app that uses the other) or Remove access (on the app being used). It takes effect right away. Deleting a project disconnects it from every app.
Cost
Connecting apps is free on every plan. When one app uses another, the work runs on the other app and counts toward its hosting, like any other request it handles.
