description: 'Bubble is a no-code application development platform that lets builders ship

  full-stack web and mobile apps without writing code. Bubble exposes three

  developer APIs — the Data API for CRUD against the app database, the

  Workflow API for triggering backend automations, and a JavaScript Plugin

  API for extending the platform with custom actions and elements. Server-side

  consumption is metered in Workload Units (WU) bundled into a tiered

  subscription (Free, Starter, Growth, Team, Enterprise) with overage pricing

  for additional WU and storage.

  description: 'REST API exposing the Bubble app database. Supports search with

    constraints, cursor-based pagination, single-record CRUD, bulk create

    (up to 1,000 records), and metadata discovery. Authentication uses

    bearer tokens (admin tokens bypass privacy rules; user tokens enforce

    them). Endpoints are available on both live and `version-test`

    (development) environments.
