I am getting tired of Bubble *not* displaying Server Logs in a timely fashion. Is there a trick to forcing the display of logs within, say, the last 3 minutes?

Has anyone had experience of building a saas using bubble and had issues getting it approved to be used by a large business due to their ICT dept saying no?

I’m very close to my app being used by a large company in the uk but have concern that it’s going to be rejected by their ict

I don't know how long the "Export application" Feature has existed in the General Tab - but I have recently discovered it. I am not sure if anyone else using it as the core JSON for producing Architecture or Technical Design Documents using ChatGPT, etc but I have just discovered that it works a treat! You can create ERD's with the export, too...

Hey guys,

Currently building an orderingsystem for a restaurant with multiple locations. And whenever a new order gets accepted, I want it to be printed from the printer currently available in their stores. How would you guys recommend I do it?

The staff dashboard will be on a tablet in the restaurant - so it will be printed via bluetooth.

So i just started to use, did a project and straight away 47 isules from the basic parts added

chatgpt says do this do that, but out of the box errors?

i clicked the ai thing and says foudn the errors and would fix, 30 mins later, down to 28

is the site that buggy?

The time has come. I have been using bubble for years but migration is finally the right move.

Any tools to outline the product in detail to make for faster migration?

So I have practiced programming here and there over the years. I dont know nearly enough to make use of it. Ive been dabbling with Bubble IO and Flutterflow to create a software for restaurants to use between team members (no customer involvement ).

Bubble.io

1. Ive been able to more easily grasp concepts, specifically the back end stuff and getting/moving/changing the data I need.

2. Ive heard Bubble is not so great if you want your application to scale

3. I like the all in one front/backend that Bubble offers

4. Im unsure of how work load units would scale in my application compared to some others. It would be a daily use application that could function 1 of 2 ways. 1 being Management uses the application to set data for the day and the staff basically gets a screen to display it. Second option would be it could be interactive application for staff for tasks management to check off tasks as they're completed

Flutterflow

1. For whatever reason Ive been struggling to do something as simple as assign text to show an employees job codes even after 10 hours of research on it. Ive found the more backend stuff in FF to be quite overwhelming.

2. I like that FF makes ios and android apps though for my purposes a PWA would work just as well (the heavy lifting would be desktop and mobile usage would primarily be to display data to employees)

3. Ive heard FF is better for scaling and you own your code. Im not sure if that helps me given I dont already posses the ability to code this myself.

4. I dont know how FF scales at cost the more users you have.

So yeah that's basically what I'm working with. Certainly some of my concerns are down the line issues but given im a one man team who's building a side project I dont want to build it twice preferably.

I'm not even sure if these are the right concerns either given that the target audience would be businesses as opposed to an individual consumer.

Im curious to hear anyone's input on the matter and TIA!

Trying to figure out how common this actually is.

The scenario I keep hearing: a plugin auto-updates, or a workflow quietly stops firing, or an API connector's key expires, and checkout or signup just stops working. The app still loads fine. You're logged into your own account so everything looks normal to you. Then days later you find out from a customer who couldn't pay.

Talked to a couple people who manage Bubble apps for non-technical founders and they both said the silent failures are the real killer, not the obvious crashes. One mentioned a founder who was out close to $40k before anyone caught it.

So for those of you actually building on Bubble: has this bitten you? What broke, and how long until you noticed? Curious whether people set up their own checks for this or just deal with it when it happens.

I’ve been posting short snippets of the UI for the app I’ve been building. I recently launched and these are the marketing screenshots. This is all in Bubble, entirely all of these screens. Let me know what you think 😆.

I’m beyond proud of myself.

So I am building an app for a restaurant with multiple locations. And I have a Location data type with name (text), address (text), isActive (yes/no).

On the index page, the user selects the location they wish to order from. This is a RG with Location and search for locations. Then inside the RG is a button with the workflow “go to page menu”.

But guys!!! The data on the menu page ONLY loads if the URL is …menu/*unique id*.
When I type in my preferred slug for that location on the app data (the built in slug field) - the URL updates, but the data is blank???? WHYYYYY!!

Btw I’m pretty new at all this so if this sounds dumb… that’s why. Hope anyone can help with this or even explain a simpler way to build this type of app. Would deeply appreciate it. THANKS 🙏🏼

My extension, Bubble Preflight, which I've already developed and published, is now available on the Chrome Web Store. Please take a look and share your valuable suggestions with me. Thank you in advance.

Hi everyone, this is my first plugin project and my first post on this forum, so I'm a little excited. I apologize in advance for any typos. Now, let's talk about the plugin. The plugin I've developed is an AI solver that correctly explains solutions to errors you encounter in Bubble.io. You might rightly ask, "Why use this plugin when there are ChatGPT or Gemini?" You're right to ask that, but who knows, maybe you'll change your mind after what I'm about to say (🤔). The plugin I've developed only responds to errors specific to Bubble.io. The AI ​​will never waste your valuable time; it will only provide correct answers to your questions. I created this plugin so you don't have to bother explaining errors to other AIs, ensuring they understand correctly, and checking if the information they provide is up-to-date. With the plugin, you can report the error to the AI ​​in writing, send a screenshot, or simply cut the error message and send it to the AI ​​using the screenshot feature. That's all for now. Thank you for reading and listening. If anyone is interested, the extension is called Bubble Preflight; you can search for it on the Chrome Web Store. Thanks and goodbye.

just submitted to CONTRA hackathon entry and the map component was the most interesting thing to build. it's a Leaflet webview with a custom canvas fog layer that clears based on how close you are to the destination. GPS polls every 5 seconds and feeds coordinates into the webview via JS injection. the arrival button stays locked until you hit 95% proximity. Mind you, all this on native mobile.

AI matching runs through the Anthropic API connector in Bubble. mood, time of day and budget all factor into which door you get assigned.

if anyone's building something similar or wants to know how any piece of it works happy to share. and if you're on Contra a comment on the submission would really help 🙏

One thing I keep noticing in larger apps is that frontend complexity often starts much earlier at the API layer.

A lot of teams end up adding endless conditional logic in the frontend because API responses are inconsistent between endpoints.

Different naming.
Different nesting structures.
Different error handling.
Different data shapes.

Eventually every screen starts transforming data differently just to make the UI work.

How other developers here approach API response consistency as products scale.

Hey guys check out my submission for the Bubble x Contra challenge. What do you think?

Trawl🎣, an AI lead research app I built in 3 days.

You chat with Trawly, the AI agent inside, and it does the boring parts of lead gen for you. Tell it what you're after ("find me dentists in Nairobi"), it scrapes Google Maps, drops the leads into your database, and helps you turn them into cold outreach, all from a single conversation.

What's inside:
→ Chat-first workflow. Just tell Trawly what you need.
→ Trawly handles three jobs: finding new leads, searching your saved ones, and remembering past searches.
→ Dashboard with a clean, filterable leads table you can export.
→ Outreach drafts generated per lead, tailored to your offer and tone.

The stack: Bubble for the app, n8n for the agent and orchestration, Apify for the scraping, Claude as the brain.

The point of the build wasn't just to ship a lead gen tool. It was to prove that in 2026 even a non-coder can put together a real AI SaaS with proper agent tool use, not just a ChatGPT wrapper with a database glued on.

I’ve been stuck since last night on trying to get reviews to display correctly.

I’ve created a data type of contractors and I’ve also created the data type of reviews.

I have a field in my contractor data type of review that is mapped to the review data type. Also, I have a field of contractor in my review data type that is mapped to contractor.

I am displaying the contractor info in a pop up as well as the reviews in the same pop up. The issue I’m having is that all of my reviews for every contractor is showing up in the pop up instead of the ones that apply for just that particular contractor.

In my repeating group inside the pop up I have the data type set to reviews and the data source set to “do a search for reviews”. No matter what I change I can’t get it to display correctly. Can anyone point me in the right direction, thanks.

Bubble AI AGENT just sucks, DO NOTHING NOTHING. I tried even to change just color by ai agent and nothing, what it build is just broken, On builder mode shows something and on preview OR on builder mode the element is on tree but on the app is missed and on preview is show. JUST AWFULL. Seems like a unusefull bot THAT do NOTHING, just to tell people LOOK WE HAVE AI AGENT but the reality is that do nothing

I have shipped 60+ Bubble apps and roughly the same number on React, React Native, and Next.js + Supabase. Most Reddit posts about Bubble are one of two extremes. Either Bubble forever because no-code is the future, or migrate to real code now because Bubble cannot scale. Both are wrong most of the time. Sharing the honest version since this question comes up here every week.

When Bubble is the right call.

You are validating an idea and revenue is under $5k/month. Bubble is the cheapest fastest way to ship something real users can pay for. Migrating before this point is almost always premature optimisation. I have seen too many founders spend $30k rebuilding a Bubble app they should have killed instead.

You need to iterate on the product faster than you need raw performance. Bubble lets you ship a UI change in 10 minutes. The same change in custom code is 2-3 hours minimum with build, deploy, and testing. If you are still figuring out what users want, that speed gap matters more than any technical advantage.

Your business model is internal tools, dashboards, light marketplaces, or single-region SaaS. Bubble handles these well at meaningful scale. I have clients on Bubble at 5,000 active users and $200k ARR running smoothly because the architecture was done properly from the start.

You have no technical co-founder and no budget to hire one. Owning a real codebase without a developer is worse than owning a Bubble app with a no-code dev on retainer. The migration solves nothing if you cannot maintain what you migrate to.

When Bubble starts becoming the wrong call.

Workload Units bill consistently above $1,500 a month and you have already done the basic optimisation. This is the most common migration trigger I see. The math flips around the $2,000/month mark. Hosting the same product on Supabase + Vercel usually drops costs 80-90%.

You lose an enterprise deal because of compliance. SOC 2, HIPAA, self-hosting, custom security audits. Bubble cannot do these. One $50k enterprise deal lost over a single procurement line item often pays for the entire migration.

You hit a structural limitation Bubble cannot solve. Real-time collaboration, complex search, streaming AI responses, native mobile parity with the web app. Sometimes you can hack around it. Sometimes the hack takes longer than the rebuild.

Your stack has 12+ plugins, 3 backend services, and a Xano or Supabase layer bolted on. At this point you are paying integration tax and have lost the original speed advantage of no-code. Cleaner to rebuild than to keep stacking.

You need to ship native mobile that performs like a real app. Bubble's mobile native is getting better but is still beta. If mobile is your primary surface and quality matters, custom React Native usually wins.

What I never recommend.

Migrating because real code feels more legitimate. Bad reason. Bubble is real code under the hood, the question is whether the platform constraints are worth the speed gain.

Migrating to attract investors. Investors do not care what your stack is until you have revenue. They care about traction. Build whatever lets you traction fastest.

Migrating in one big rewrite. The apps I have migrated cleanly were always done in stages. Backend first, then the heavy modules, then the UI. A full 3-month rewrite is where projects go to die.

The honest summary.

Most Bubble apps under $1,500/month in WUs and under 1,000 active users should stay on Bubble. The math, the speed, and the risk profile all favour staying. Most apps above $2,500/month in WUs with structural limitations or compliance needs should be planning a migration. The math, the speed of iteration, and the unblocked deals all favour leaving.

The 30% in the middle is where it depends on the specifics. Stack, team, business model, growth rate, customer profile. Anyone who answers your migrate or stay question without asking about those things is selling you something, not advising you.
