Current status of the Ning Platform is always available on the Ning Status Blog.

Hi all, I wonder if anyone could give me any advice on this one. 

I have a site with quite a few forums, RSS feeds and link pages. I was looking at possibly making an app for this. There appear to be quite a few options to do this for a non-coder like me, such as shoutem.  Sounds like I would need API on it tooand would definitely want android and apple compatibility. 

If anyone has any experience with making an interactive Ning compatable app could you let me know what has worked well (or not!) for you, which company you went with etc.

Thanks,

Rob

  • Hi there!

    Unfortunately, we don't have API on Ning 3.0, one up creating tool has been mentioned in this discussion https://creators.ning.com/forum/topics/ning-mobile-app, you may check it probably it's something that you are looking for. Also, I hope other creators would be able to share their app creating experience if they had one.

    Best wishes,

    Ning Team.

    • In the home page of ning.com there is mention of an api.

      • Hi there!

        Thanks for letting us know I would remind management that this text should be changed in order to prevent any misunderstandings.

    There's even a help article for it.

    • Hi there!

      As I know the API is disabled as it wasn't finished and right now on pause, and it won't be returning any results on the callbacks. So basically there is no API on Ning 3.0 at the moment.

      Apologies for any inconveniences.

      Bets regards,

      Ning Team.

      • Will it return? I know a lot of people like TJ would love to use it for custom projects for 3.0.

        • Hi there!

          I suppose one day the works under API would be renewed, however, at this moment they should stay on pause as we have other tasks with higher priority. Also, it's necessary to admit that most part people who are using site builders are not familiar with the codding the higher priority in most cases would be given to teh tasks related to the new features.

          Best wishes,

          Ning Team.
