Create App Without Settings

If you don't provide settings, default values are used:

REST API
Python
JavaScript

curl -X POST https://your-site.taruvi.cloud/api/apps/ \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Simple App",
    "description": "App with default settings"
  }'

import requests

headers = {
    "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN",
    "Content-Type": "application/json"
}
response = requests.post(
    "https://your-site.taruvi.cloud/api/apps/",
    headers=headers,
    json={
        "name": "Simple App",
        "description": "App with default settings"
    }
)
data = response.json()

const response = await fetch("https://your-site.taruvi.cloud/api/apps/", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN",
    "Content-Type": "application/json"
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    name: "Simple App",
    description: "App with default settings"
  })
})
const data = await response.json()

The app will be created with:

display_name: Same as app name ("Simple App")
primary_color: #1976d2 (default blue)
secondary_color: #dc004e (default pink)
category: analytics (default)
max_functions: 100 (default)
max_datatables: 50 (default)
rate_limit_per_hour: 1000 (default)

REST API
Python
JavaScript

curl -X PUT https://your-site.taruvi.cloud/api/apps/{slug}/ \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Updated App Name",
    "description": "Updated description"
  }'

import requests

headers = {
    "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN",
    "Content-Type": "application/json"
}
response = requests.put(
    "https://your-site.taruvi.cloud/api/apps/{slug}/",
    headers=headers,
    json={
        "name": "Updated App Name",
        "description": "Updated description"
    }
)
data = response.json()

const response = await fetch("https://your-site.taruvi.cloud/api/apps/{slug}/", {
  method: "PUT",
  headers: {
    "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN",
    "Content-Type": "application/json"
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    name: "Updated App Name",
    description: "Updated description"
  })
})
const data = await response.json()

Note: To update app settings, use the App Settings API endpoints (documented below in the App Settings section).

Delete App

Soft delete an app (marks as inactive).

REST API
Python
JavaScript

curl -X DELETE https://your-site.taruvi.cloud/api/apps/{slug}/ \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"

Response:

{
  "status": "success",
  "message": "App deleted successfully"
}

import requests

headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"}
response = requests.delete(
    "https://your-site.taruvi.cloud/api/apps/{slug}/",
    headers=headers
)
data = response.json()

const response = await fetch("https://your-site.taruvi.cloud/api/apps/{slug}/", {
  method: "DELETE",
  headers: { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" }
})
const data = await response.json()

Settings in Response

List View (Lightweight)

When listing apps, only essential settings are included:

display_name
category
icon_url
primary_color

Detail View (Complete)

When retrieving a single app, complete settings are included with all fields.

See the App Settings section below for managing app settings and configurations.

Notes

App slugs are auto-generated from the name
Settings are automatically created when an app is created
Deleting an app is a soft delete (marks as inactive)
All datatables associated with a deleted app are also marked as inactive

App Settings

App Settings provide per-app configuration for branding, technical limits, and metadata. Each app can have customized settings including theme colors, icons, resource limits, and documentation links.

Nested Under Apps

All app settings endpoints are nested under the app: /api/apps/{app_slug}/settings/. Each app has exactly one settings configuration.

App Settings Endpoints

Method	Endpoint	Description
GET	`/api/apps/{app_slug}/settings/`	Get app settings
POST	`/api/apps/{app_slug}/settings/`	Create app settings (not recommended - auto-created)
PUT	`/api/apps/{app_slug}/settings/`	Full update app settings
PATCH	`/api/apps/{app_slug}/settings/`	Partial update app settings
DELETE	`/api/apps/{app_slug}/settings/`	Not allowed

Settings Overview

App Settings enable you to configure individual apps with:

Branding: Custom colors and icons
Categorization: Organize apps by type (Analytics, Integration, Storage)
Resource Limits: Control maximum functions, datatables, and API rate limits
Documentation: Link to app-specific docs and support contacts
Frontend Worker: Set default frontend worker URL

Detail View: Returns complete settings (all fields) for full information

Caching

App settings are frequently accessed and should be cached at the application level for optimal performance.
