  Bubble is a no-code application development platform that lets builders ship
  full-stack web and mobile apps without writing code. Bubble exposes three
  developer APIs — the Data API for CRUD against the app database, the
  Workflow API for triggering backend automations, and a JavaScript Plugin
  API for extending the platform with custom actions and elements. Server-side
  consumption is metered in Workload Units (WU) bundled into a tiered
  subscription (Free, Starter, Growth, Team, Enterprise) with overage pricing
  for additional WU and storage.

  - name: Bubble Data API
    description: |
      REST API exposing the Bubble app database. Supports search with
      constraints, cursor-based pagination, single-record CRUD, bulk create
      (up to 1,000 records), and metadata discovery. Authentication uses
      bearer tokens (admin tokens bypass privacy rules; user tokens enforce
      them). Endpoints are available on both live and `version-test`
      (development) environments.

  - name: Bubble Workflow API
    description: |
      REST API for triggering backend workflows defined in the Bubble editor.
      Each workflow is exposed at `/api/1.1/wf/{workflow_name}` and can be
      configured for POST or GET, with authentication settings ranging from
      public to user/admin to admin-only. Workflows can return JSON, plain
      text, or a configurable redirect on success/error.

    description: |
      JavaScript SDK surface for building Bubble plugins. Plugin authors write
      server-side actions, client-side actions, and visual elements that
      receive `(properties, context)` and read/write data through `BubbleThing`
      and `BubbleList` wrappers. Plugin API v4 replaces Fibers with native
      Promises and adds first-class type checks (`isBubbleThing`,
      `isBubbleList`), id-based lookups (`getThingById`, `getThingsById`), and
      async iteration on `BubbleList`.
