Public Sharing
Public Sharing allows users to share table data with external parties.
Webforms
InfoLobby allows you to create a Webform from any table to collect data from an external source and add it to InfoLobby. The webform can be customized with the following properties:
- Fields: You can select which fields from the table to include in the webform.
- Domains: You can specify the domains where the webform can be embedded.
- Custom CSS: You can add custom CSS styles to change the look and feel of the form.
- Redirect URL: You can specify a URL to redirect users to after they submit the form.
- Submit Message: You can specify a message to display to users after they submit the form.
Once you save a form, it will generate a public link that can be directly shared with users. It will also generate an embed code that can be used to embed the form in your website.
Embedded Views
Embedded Views is a feature in InfoLobby that allows you to embed a public view of a table to your website. This can be useful if you want to allow users to view or interact with data from your InfoLobby tables on your website.
Once you create an embedded view, you can customize it with the following properties:
- View: You can select a view from the list of public views of the table. A private view won't work. A view is a customized version of a table that shows only the data that you want to display.
- Show Detail: This option determines whether a detail view of the item is opened when you click a row in the embedded view. A detail view shows more information about the selected item, such tabs.
Allowed Domains: You can specify the domains where the embedded view can be embedded. This is useful if you only want the embedded view to be displayed on your own website.
Once you save a form, it will generate a public link that can be directly shared with users. It will also generate an embed code that can be used to embed the form in your website.
Warning: When you create a public view, the data in the view is no longer protected and can be accessed by anyone who visits the website where it is embedded.

Please note that embedding relies on iFrame cookies. If your browser is blocking iFrame cookies, we will not be able to render the content. Make sure you're not in incognito or private browsing mode, or try changing your security settings. This is applicable for both WebForms and Embedded Views
-
If your website always uses HTTPS, you can simply enter the domain name in the settings, e.g. example.com. However, if your website can use either HTTP or HTTPS, you need to enter both forms, e.g. http://example.com and https://example.com.
Public API
The Public API is a feature in InfoLobby that allows you to expose data from your tables to the public. This can be useful if you want to allow users to access your data from other applications or websites.
The Public API exposes two API endpoints:
-
Query Table: This endpoint allows you to retrieve data from a table.
Query Table: /api/table/TABLE_ID/records/query -
Get Record: This endpoint allows you to retrieve a specific record from a table.
Get Record: /api/table/TABLE_ID/record/RECORD_ID/get
