Bubble

Your Bubble app's backend, driven by AI conversation

Customers submit data, upload files, and trigger actions through your AI agent, and everything writes directly to your Bubble database. No forms, no manual entry. The agent handles CRUD operations, workflow triggers, and file uploads through Bubble's Data and Workflow APIs in real-time.

Chosen by 800+ global brands across industries

No-code database operations, automated

Your AI agent reads, writes, and manages data in your Bubble app, triggers backend workflows, and handles file storage, all through conversation instead of the visual editor.

Use Cases

Conversational app management

See how AI agents interact with Bubble's visual programming backend to handle user onboarding, bulk data entry, and document workflows through natural conversation.

Chat-Based User Registration Without Forms

A new visitor wants to sign up through your chat widget instead of filling out a registration form. Your AI Agent gathers their name, email, and preferences conversationally, then calls Bubble's Create Thing endpoint to provision the user record. The agent also triggers a welcome email workflow via the Workflow API. Registration completes entirely within the chat, and your Bubble database has a clean new record.

Seasonal Catalog Updates in Minutes

Your merchandising team needs to add 400 new product listings to the Bubble app before a seasonal launch. Your AI Agent accepts the product data, validates required fields like price and SKU, then calls Bubble's Bulk Create Things endpoint in optimized batches. The entire catalog populates in minutes rather than hours of manual data entry through Bubble's visual editor.

Document Submission with Automated Review Pipelines

A client submits identity documents through your chatbot for account verification. Your AI Agent uploads each file via Bubble's File Upload endpoint, links the stored file URLs to the client's record using Patch Thing, and triggers a review workflow via the Workflow API. The verification pipeline activates automatically while the client receives real-time status updates in conversation.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the AI agent create records in my Bubble database?

The agent sends a POST request to Bubble's Data API Create Thing endpoint with the data type name and a JSON object containing your field values. Required fields must be present. Bubble creates the record and returns a unique ID that the agent can reference in follow-up operations like updates or file attachments.

Can the agent trigger workflows I built in Bubble's visual editor?

Yes. Any API workflow you configure in the Bubble editor can be triggered by the agent using GET or POST requests. Supply the workflow name and input parameters, and Bubble executes the full workflow logic on its backend, including conditional steps, email sends, database modifications, and third-party integrations.

What credentials does Tars need to connect to my Bubble app?

Tars requires two pieces of information: your Bubble app's base URL (either your bubbleapps.io subdomain or custom domain) and a Data API key. Generate the API key from Settings, then API in the Bubble editor. Enable Data API access for each data type you want your agent to read or write.

Does Tars store any of my Bubble app's data?

No. Tars sends API requests to Bubble in real time and does not cache or persist your database records, user data, or uploaded files. All data remains within your Bubble app's infrastructure. The agent only processes the minimum information needed to complete each requested operation during the conversation.

How does file uploading work through the AI agent?

The agent accepts file content from the user and calls Bubble's File Upload endpoint, which stores the file in Bubble's cloud storage. For temporary staging, the Temp Create endpoint stores files on Cloudflare R2 with a short-lived S3 key. Both methods return a URL you can link to database records via a follow-up Patch Thing call.

What is the difference between Patch and Put Replace when updating records?

Patch modifies only the fields you specify while leaving all other fields unchanged on the record. Put Replace overwrites every editable field, resetting any omitted fields to their default values. Use Patch for targeted updates like changing a user's email, and Put Replace when you need a complete record overwrite.

Can the agent work with both Bubble's production and development environments?

Yes. Bubble's API supports a branch parameter that targets either the live production environment or the version-test development environment. Your agent can switch between branches, letting you test workflow triggers and data operations safely before deploying changes to production users.

Does this integration work with custom domains on Bubble apps?

Yes. All Bubble API endpoints support both the default bubbleapps.io subdomain and any custom domain configured for your app. Provide your custom domain as the base URL during setup, and the agent routes all API requests to your branded endpoint automatically.
