Integrations

Connect your project on Ideavo with third-party services to build and deploy full-stack apps fast—databases, authentication, payments, and more.

Why Ideavo doesn't offer built-in services

• Flexibility: Choose the right service for your needs—databases (Postgres/MySQL/Firebase/MongoDB), auth providers (Auth0/Clerk/Supabase), payment processors (Stripe/PayPal), and other APIs.
• Vendor independence: Switch providers as requirements evolve without rewriting your application's core logic.
• Cost efficiency: Select pricing models that align with your traffic patterns, user base, and feature requirements.
• Scalability: Leverage purpose-built solutions with the performance, reliability, and scaling capabilities you need.
• Compliance: Choose providers and regions that meet regulatory requirements like GDPR, PCI-DSS, or industry-specific standards.
• Developer experience: Use your preferred tools, SDKs, and libraries with your team's existing expertise.

Integration Steps

1. In the chat box, ask Ideavo to connect to the required service (database, auth, payments, etc.)
2. Follow AI response
   • You'll receive a reply in the chat with step-by-step instructions on the next actions to take.
3. Switch to Code Mode
   • Change from Preview Mode to Code Mode via the toggle in the left corner of the navigation bar.
4. Locate the .env File
   • By default, the .env file appears at the top of your project tree in Code Mode.
5. Unlock Editing
   • Click the Eye button on the top-right.
   • This unlocks the .env file so you can safely edit environment variables.
6. Add Your API Keys/Credentials

   • Save the changes.
7. Service Connected
   • Once saved, your service is now connected and ready to use inside Ideavo.
