Need help - connecting a recommendation system with a no-code app

Is it possible to connect a custom recommendation system with a no-code builder such as bubble?

I am building a social network for health care and have designed a recommendation system to power the app.

I have a health care background and am familiar with bubble as well as how to write the technical notation for the recommendation system. I am not sure how to combine the two or if this is even possible.

Does anyone know anything related to this?

    Sorry for my ignorance. But can bit more explain.

    1. 1

      Sure, I want to build basically an advanced filter, connected to A.I. to suggest contact recommendations to people. Think of it like LinkedIn

      I understand that you can make such an algorithm using python.

      My question is how do I connect this filter (recommendation system) with a python script, for example, into a Bubble.io LinkedIn clone (for example).

      The filter is what makes the app special, not the fact that it looks like LinkedIn.

      1. 3

        So as I am able to understand you want to integrate external algorithm output to the bubble.io app.

        You can do so via the REST API integration. You can create the REST API based on the external algo (recommendation system) and integrate the REST API to the bubble app.

        Hope I am able to answer it.

          Thank you, this definitely gives me a place to start.

        So I think you would setup a API on your AI thing.. Then you can send and receive requests from something like Bubble, Adalo, Appgyver etc.

        IE in Adalo user clicks "Suggest Dinner"

        • sends request to your AI engine
        • AI does it's magic
        • AI sends result back to Adalo
        • Adalo adds it to database, sends push notification to user of new result
        • List of suggestions is updated on users UI/app
        1. 1

          Thank you. @TonyDehnke have you done something like this yourself in Adalo?

          1. 1

            I have an app Adalo yes, have done some API stuff, but not to AI. but at the end of the day API is just sending some kind of request and maybe some data to something, and then receiving it back once it is processed. Store those results and display.

            So what
