UI Builder API Builder

API Builder

Availability: API Builder is feature-gated and is not enabled in the current production frontend configuration. The workflow described here applies when the feature is enabled for your team.

The API Builder is Biztraak’s visual, node-based flow editor for creating backend APIs and integrations.
It lets you design services, connect data sources, and publish GraphQL/REST endpoints through the workflows exposed by your project. Generated code should be reviewed and tested before production use.


Key Features

  • Node-Based Flow Editor: build APIs visually with drag-and-drop nodes.
  • Service Integrations: connect databases, external APIs, and federated apps.
  • Transformations: add logic, filters, and mappings without boilerplate.
  • GraphQL & REST Output: auto-generate endpoints instantly.
  • Repo Sync: all generated code is committed to your Git repo.
  • Review context: available audit and deployment records can be associated with API changes.

How it works

  1. Open your project and select API Builder.
  2. Drag nodes (Auth, DB, Service, Transform, Output) onto the canvas.
  3. Connect nodes to define your data flow.
  4. Preview the generated endpoint (REST or GraphQL).
  5. Commit → Biztraak syncs generated code to your repo.
  6. Deploy → pipelines build and publish your API to your cloud provider.

Example Workflow

  • Add an Auth Node to validate tokens.
  • Connect to a Database Node (Postgres).
  • Add a Transform Node to filter results.
  • Link to an Output Node: generates GraphQL query + REST endpoint.
  • Commit changes → Build Review spins up with a live API preview URL.

Why use the API Builder?

  • Accelerated backend dev: build complex APIs visually.
  • Security context: RBAC, IAM, and audit behavior depend on the selected project workflow.
  • Customizable: extend generated code with your own logic.
  • Integrated: can connect to UI Builder, Cloud Dev, and Marketplace apps when those feature-gated workflows are enabled for the project.

Next steps


Biztraak’s API Builder gives you the power of full-code APIs with the speed of drag-and-drop flows.
