This guide is the beginning of the documentation with the built-in Notes for database. Will help you gain a better understanding of how the template and Bubble works.
Starting with the Template
Once you have bought or added a template to your account, you will see a dropdown in the New Application popup that lets you pick a template as the basis for the new application.
Note: this can only be done when you create a new app.
After you've selected a template you bought, complete the other fields with necessary data (i.e: Name of the new app, What kind of application you are building, etc) and press Create a new app.
Tip: A template isn't a theme for your app, but a pre-built set of elements and workflows. You can modify the template as you would modify another app.
Wait for Bubble to load the application with all the data.
After the application has loaded, you'll see the bubble assistant on the left side for New Application. You can close it or follow the assistant steps to adjust different settings.
Now you're ready to go and dive into Bubble no-code development toolset.
Congrats! You have successfully created a Bubble app based on your template. Now, you can proceed with the setups.
Payments
This template uses Coinbase commerce for both cryptocurrency funding and withdrawals and Stripe (Card Payments) for funding only. Funding is adding money by the users to their own Investy wallet (account balance) to be able to make an investment.
Note: There is also Voguepay API configured for withdrawals, but to use it you'll have to create workflows first.
Note: There is also Paystack API configured for funding but currently, it is disabled. Find the instructions on how to enable it below.
Stripe
This template is using the Bubble's Stripe plugin for card payments, by users to add money to their Investy wallet (account balance) to make an investment. Please follow the Stripe payments instruction below to configure.
1. Click on the "Developers" button and then, "API keys" button. Copy your API key. Ensure to use a live API key when your template goes live.
Paste the API keys in the Stripe plugin as well as in the API connector for the Stripe Custom (don't forget to add "Bearer " for the last one).
2. The second step is to configure the API Connector plugin within your editor.
Go to Plugins -> API Connector -> Stripe Custom API and hit to expand it, here:
The API will expand, where you will be able to configure it with your own API keys, here:
Add Bearer keyword in front of the keys values. And remember to change to Live keys when you decide to go live with your app.
