  title: Bubble Data Action Thing API
  description: 'The Bubble Data API exposes the database of a Bubble app as a REST interface.

    External systems can read, search, create, modify, replace, and delete records

    of any data type defined in a Bubble app, with optional pagination, sorting,

    and search constraints. Authentication uses bearer tokens (admin API tokens

    bypass privacy rules; user tokens enforce them). Endpoints exist for live and

    development (`version-test`) environments.
