Can Twidget parse data from an email body in XML and push it into Firebase or a similar service?
Answered by Twidget
We currently do not have an XML parser; Twidget works with JSON. You can, however, push data into Firebase from Twidget if the data is in JSON or you convert it to JSON first.
Collecting website visitor info and sending to Google Sheets
You can capture request header information such as User‑Agent, device, browser, country, and other values available from the HTTP request. You can then write that data to Google Sheets via their API or using Twidget’s connector commands.
Simple authentication with a single secret key
Twidget supports token‑based authentication and provides tutorials on usage. You must first generate an authentication token (via a login request); once issued, that token can be reused for subsequent requests. There is no way to bypass the initial token generation step entirely.

Querying by custom columns (e.g., age)
Yes. Generate an endpoint for the table and update the commands/inputs to use your custom field (e.g., age), or create a custom endpoint and query the table filtering by that field.
Using Twidget to replace automation tools and act as a database
Yes. Using Twidget’s HTTP Request and connector commands you can integrate with Airtable and Google Sheets/Google Contacts. Twidget also includes a built‑in database suitable for storing and managing your data.
Building an e‑commerce backend
