Integrating with FlutterFlow using the "Trigger BuildShip Workflow"

I'm integrating with FlutterFlow using the "Trigger BuildShip Workflow" library and I am running into a "AssertionError: status code must be a number" JSON error in FF when testing a POST API Call (FF-->BS). Both platforms are connected. The FF configuration checksout (I think). I think the problem is how I have configured trigger in buildship. Can anyone help?

Workflow not updating and only working on "test"

Hello @Gaurav Chadha I've just sent an in app support request. It seems like one of my workflows is broken and only works on test it but not production. This is really urgent and it would be good if you can take a look. I also added a log node and it seems like the workflow is not being updated because the log node is just being ignored.

OpenAI Text Generator - Error 429. Current quota exceeded.

Hey guys, so clearly OpenAI has a limit on calls. I'm on the free version of Buildship. Is there any way to get more OpenAI calls?
Solution:
HI @rbharvr you'll be require to purchase OpenAI credits and add a key to make this work. The OpenAI quota is not related to BuildShip workspace credits.

Template Config has invalid expression

Hi, I would like to send users a welcome email when they log into my app. I am using the Sendgrid API and I am trying to build a node which takes the user name and email address as inputs.I then would like pass on the value of the name input to the name variable in my dynamic template. The node works when I dont use the input value and hardcode the name, but when I try to set the template variable to the input field I get an error: "Template Config has invalid expression"...
Solution:
Hi @Abhishek Sahni (Abhi), you can open the expression editor to see the actual error on the field value Template Config, click the pencil icon to open the expression editor.

How does cold start work?

Checkout my attached image. the purple bar is the execution time from a BuildShip workflow from start to end (I record the timings within the workflow itself). The green bars are measurements from the frontend you can disregard (though the BuildShip latency adds to this frontend latency). Is a workflow ALWAYS starting cold or does it start cold after a certain period of time if the workflow was not being used? Furthermore I wonder why the workflow itself runs slower at the beginning and faster i...
Solution:
Hey @Brian We checked the workflow you shared for issues with latency even after no-cold start purchase, the initial request. According to the 22 execution logs and metrics, all the initial startup requests are under 2-3ms  (you can check the request time to call the trigger) only one request - 2025-02-2620:09:32 which took 4.01s also worked without any cold start under 2ms, the time is consumed by the Groq Chat (detailed) - 2.29s and Get Document Query node - 1.48. The server performance for no cold start is consistent with the initial request without startup latency for requests within 2ms. Also sent you an email....

Output node within parallel node

What is the expected behaviour if we set an "Output" node within a "parallel" node? I just tested this quickly and it would run the first parallel log, though it would not continue on/after the "sleep" node. Is it just a coincidence that the first log node was executed because it was "fast enough" to execute before the workflow could return?...
Solution:
Hey @Brian it will execute all the nodes in parallel even if it includes a output node node, but an important item to note here is, that it will follow the precedence and will only return the value from the sequence which will have a output node first. Although it is not a correct approach to add a return inside a parallel node. Hope this helps....

The RAG system was working well before, but now I'm encountering errors:

Hi Team, The RAG system was working well before, but now I'm encountering errors: "buffer is not an object" and "pdf to text is not a string." The same workflow was running successfully without any error previously. I've attached a Loom video for reference, and I've noticed that others are experiencing this issue as well. Please check and rectify this as soon as possible. Thank you, https://www.loom.com/share/d9745c5a79ed43c3bc01e875a7f70e3c?sid=548e51d5-5751-448f-adf9-2267a27c5c26

Buildship as a scalable replacement for Kubernetes based custom server

I need to have a scalable backend to perform payment based functions to a payment gatway, and I was thinking to use Buildship since you will automatically handle the load, and that we wouldnt have to create and manage a monitoring system itself. Pls tell me more about this, is it possible, and is there a pay as you go plan if are going more than the dedicated credits of a certain plan. need help. thanks.
Solution:
Hi @Based Ken BuildShip gives you a fully managed service so app APIs, and workflows are deployed on BuildShip infrastructure on Google Cloud which is GKE built on Kubernetes with an option to host and deploy the full instance of the server on your own GCP server (Enterprise Plan) as well giving you the full power to scale infinitely. You can email us at sales@buildship.com along with all your requirements, your company details, and expected MAUs, etc....

supabase trigger

Hi, I would like to develop a backend workflow in buildship that will be triggered from an insert into a supabase table. Following the documentation it looks easy, I did it BUT I do not see any webhook defined in supabase when I define the trigger in buildship Also when I click on "Get Data" it does not retrieve anything. The following get row data node is working, so it means the connection with SB is working, I have also the green "Connected" button. Where is the problem?...

Buildship Flutterflow Trigger

I’m creating a flutterflow lead generation page that will integrate with buildship to send emails. I want to ensure the buildship endpoint is secure and thought a good solution will be the flutterflow trigger. I have a couple questions 1) If I want to use firebase authentication on the Flutterflow trigger, how would I do that? 2) on the library screen for the trigger, where do I get the AuthValue and InputValues from? 3) Am I right in thinking I need to set up buildship to connect with the firebase project and update the service account and other info in GCP?...

Run "Execute BuildShip Workflow" asynchronously?

The old "Execute Workflow (Across Projects)" node had a setting "Await". What about this new "Execute BuildShip Workflow"? Does it await all the time? Sadly we cannot see the code in this node and there is also no information on that in the info tab.

Insufficient credits

I am new to buildship and start with api call for get request. I am a free user plan and it show message error that "BuildShip credit limit reached. Top-up credits to continue running executions." When I signed up it gave me 3000 credits and i have not use any credit and I still have this 3000 credits why it say insufficient credit.
Solution:
@Gaurav Chadha I just fixed it by paying basic plan, that solve the problem. It look like the free credit is not usable for API request

Dynamic Web Scraper issues!?

Hi I’m really struggling to get the dynamic web scraper to work as intended. Instead of performing the steps and then scraping the target div, it seems to be ignoring the steps or at least not performing them before returning the scrapes contents of the div on the starting URL. Definitely put the steps in correctly, including the navigation timeout. What’s going on?...
Solution:
It can be quite tricky if you want to send a Remix Link I can take a look

Youtube template is not showing

Hii, I went to template and search for Youtube template but its not showing me in template section. Here is the screenshot for the same. I watched a youtube video in which author is using youtube template but its not showing in the app
Solution:
Yeah I'm fairly sure YouTube tightened up on what was freely available with their API, you can probably still do this but you would have to investigate the current options available on the YouTube API, and it might be a paid feature, sometimes things change. You might be able to get a similar result using the dynamic scrape web url node in Buildship to search youtube videos for a particular topic, but you would have to set that up yourself https://youtu.be/OJZzwcgjKW8...
