Custom Widget : How to Fetch Tulip Table For Making Charts In JS

Support, Troubleshooting, & Help
1

How do we fetch the Tulip Table Record to Custom Widgets.
Is it possible to fetch the Tulip table / Table Records to custom widgets for making charts/graphs…?

Check out this widget, you will need to generate an API token, and add that to the js, but otherwise you should be good to go.

Hi Pete,

Do you have it on the roadmap to include this feature without API tokens? (We have restriction to use them)

displayData();

const colsToHide = [];
let selected = [];



async function callAPI() {
  //console.log("in fetch machine data")
  const authorizationBasic =
    "apikey.2_xxxxxxxxxx";

  let myHeaders = new Headers();
  myHeaders.append("Accept", "application/json");
  myHeaders.append("Authorization", "Basic " + authorizationBasic);
  myHeaders.append(
    "Content-Type",
    "application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8"
  );

  const myInit = {
    method: "GET",
    headers: myHeaders,
    mode: "cors",
    cache: "default"
  };

  let myRequest = new Request(
    `https://{instanceurl}.tulip.co/api/v3/tables/{tableid}/records?limit=100`
  );

  const response = await fetch(myRequest, myInit);
  const data = await response.json();
  return data;
}

@Pete_Hartnett do I have this right? is the Secret go anywhere in the js or just the key?

Hello Jordan,

Hope you’re doing very well. Thank you for your support and for sharing your code.

I want to say that with the API key we will need the functionality code for the secret key in JavaScript.

In addition. I’ll tell you if it works without a secret key. I will try to implement your ideas in my code if it runs without any bugs or errors, and by running it we are able to bring the table to a custom widget then it will be really economical and if it happens then I will let you know.

Hey Pete, Thanks for providing us the running product. It would be a great help if you can share the code you wrote in HTML.

             callAPI();

const colsToHide = [];
let selected = [];



async function callAPI() {

  const authorizationBasic =
    "apikey.2_xxxxxxxxxx";


  let myHeaders = new Headers();
  myHeaders.append("Accept", "application/json");
  myHeaders.append("Authorization", "Basic " + authorizationBasic);
  myHeaders.append(

  );

  const myInit = {
    method: "GET",
    headers: myHeaders,
    mode: "cors",
    cache: "default"
  };

  let myRequest = new Request(
    `https://xxxxxx.tulip.co/api/v3/tables/xxxxxxxx/records?limit=10`
  );

  const response = await fetch(myRequest, myInit);
  const data = await response.json();
  return data;
  console.log("data")

}
document.getElementById("body").value=data
  </script>
 
       
        </head>

This code is not working properly & even I’m not getting data in console. Can you tell me where I’m making mistake or share the correct code?
