Wondering if I can build a Clay.com like experience on retool

App Building

  • Goal: - I want to build a spreadsheet like front end but give the user the ability to add columns options with some backend code - functions like API integrations (With OpenAI) or connection with agents. Similar to the Clay solution (A spreadsheet that you can hook APIs to make sales data more usefull)

To test the MVP out would I be able to make that solution on Retool?

Hello @Hugo_Mansur!

Could you provide more details or examples for the column options you want a user to be able to add?

Modifying database schema is not a very easy thing to do and can have many risks and issues for database serialization and data integrity, as some row entries might be missing fields from columns that are added later.

You can definitely fetch and display sales data in a table, as well as give users option of editing and interacting with the data. Checkout our docs here on AI integrations as we do have several options for adding this functionality to retools apps.

The best way to find out what you can build is getting your hands on components and testing things out!
