πŸ“ New Database Table View


The database table view in Xano just went through an epic transformation! πŸš€ We're talking about a ground-up, from scratch, overhaul to skyrocket your database experience. Get ready to be wowed! 🀩

🎨 A slick, revamped user interface
πŸ”„ Infinite scrolling – Keep on scrolling, there’s no end in sight!
πŸ‘† Quick jump to page, top, or bottom – Teleport around your data with a magic touch! πŸ§™β€β™‚οΈ

The new database view is live right now! Go check it out!

πŸ‘‰ New Function Selector Panel


We've completely transformed the function selector panel! You can now search and parse through our list of available functions faster, and even favorite functions you use frequently for quicker access!

πŸ” Database Column Renaming


Tired of trying to rename a column only to be met with a warning that this will result in data loss? No more! We've transformed the way renaming columns works in the database, which means that when you rename a column, the data stays! Oh, and all of your endpoints that use Database Link? Those update at the same time.

πŸ“¨ Database Table Sharing


Stop using your team seats for team members that just need to view data! You can now share your database tables with anybody, even if they are not Xano users. A truly huge addition to transform how you approach sharing your Xano data with others!

πŸ‘€ Create exclusive database views and choose exactly what data to share
πŸ” Edit or revoke access as necessary
πŸ•΅ Secured by 2FA, password, or allow for public access, and change this setting at any time

Wondering how to start sharing? Check out our Table Sharing documentation here.

πŸ” CORS Management for API Groups


A highly requested feature! You now have the ability to transform the following CORS parameters for each API group, providing you even more flexibility when building your backend securely.

🀝 Allow Credentials
πŸ”„ Allow Methods
🌍 Allow Origins
πŸ“‹ Allow Headers
⏳ Max Age

For those of you who need to apply specific CORS parameters to your APIs, check out our documentation on the feature right here.

πŸŽ›οΈ Inline Filters on Statement Outputs


Previously, if you wanted to transform that output, you would have to either chain filters where the variable is referenced, or utilize an Update Variable step. No more! You now have the ability to add filters directly to the output of statements, saving you time and making your function stacks more efficient than ever before!

Check out the documentation for inline filtering right here.

πŸ•΅ JS and Python Friendly Filter Search


We've sprinkled some of our own magic and tagged our pipe filters with their JavaScript and Python counterparts. It's like transforming your skills directly into Xano knowledge without lifting a finger!

πŸ’‘ Why is this awesome?

  • Familiarity in a Snap: Find the filter you need in a flash, just like spotting a familiar face in a crowd. No more getting lost in translation! πŸ€Ήβ€β™‚οΈπŸ”Ž

  • Seamless Transition: Jump into our No-Code API Builder with your JS or Python skills and hit the ground running.
