I want to use in my app external database source.
the question is :
if my app will create user in external database,
will this action be counted as API call (against API Calls per Month limit)?
Hello Adam,
It doesn't count calls to the 3rd-part database if you don't use Appery.io proxy in that service or Server Code to call your database
thank you for your answer
have few more questions :
us I understand, by not using any server code in app services any future app updates will be posible only by new app versions uploads to app stores?
is that correct?
do you have any examples/video tutorials how to use 3rd part databases without server codes?
thank you
ps. my intention is to build an app which will use 3rd party database very intensively, so I would like to limit API calls as much as possible,
what best practise would you suggest in this case?
1) Yes, it is possible. Just use plain REST services for that.
2) Please use XHR requests for that: https://devcenter.appery.io/documenta...
You are able to connect your DB using API Express for that: https://devcenter.appery.io/documenta...
Note: API Express call are counted as API call as well as Server Code calls
