Authentication (Login) & authenticated requests with Bubble

Customer question: How do I set up authentication between Xano and Bubble without passing the auth token in the URL? And continuing to pass the auth token from page to page for the authenticated API calls?

This tutorial shows you how to set up 3rd party Authentication in Bubble powered by Xano. Using the API connector connect to your Xano backend. See how to login your user to generate an auth token from Xano and use the Local Storage plugin to pass the auth token from page to page to hit authenticated API requests.

Could you use a custom state in bubble to hold the token instead of using the storage plugin and also avoiding using the bubble url parameter?

This is a life saver of a video when it comes to using external authentication and user management outside of Bubble!

This same tutorial for Bildr would be a great addition! The video was helpful though :)

A question that I have is when you are using the bubble user database, you are able to use the Run As function in the database directly to quickly switch users in order to test out build functionality. Does the integration with Xano provide that same type of functionality or do we have to sign in as the users in order to test?
