An app that fetches Facebook leads forms for a page using the Facebook Developers API. This app uses the FastAPI to create an endpoint to call the Facebook API for getting the page lead forms. A facebook access token for the page will be needed to make the API call. The permission scopes you will need for the access token are `ads_management`, `pages_read_engagement`, `pages_show_list`, `pages_manage_ads` and ` leads_retrieval`.

Introduction to the Get Facebook Leads Using API Template

Welcome to the "Get Facebook Leads Using API" template guide. This template is designed to help you fetch Facebook lead forms for a page using the Facebook Developers API. It leverages FastAPI to create an endpoint that interacts with the Facebook API to retrieve page lead forms. Before you can use this template, you will need a Facebook access token with specific permissions. The required permissions are ads_management, pages_read_engagement, pages_show_list, pages_manage_ads, and leads_retrieval.

This step-by-step article will guide you through the process of setting up and using this template on the Lazy platform, ensuring you can start fetching leads without worrying about deployment or environment setup.

Clicking Start with this Template

To begin using this template, click on the "Start with this Template" button. This will pre-populate the code in the Lazy Builder interface, so you won't need to copy, paste, or delete any code manually.

Initial Setup: Adding Environment Secrets

Before testing the app, you'll need to set up the necessary environment secrets. These are not the same as environment variables in your operating system; they are secrets that can be set within the Lazy Builder under the Environment Secrets tab.

For this template, you will need to acquire a Facebook access token with the aforementioned permissions. To get this token, follow these steps:

Go to the Facebook Developers website and navigate to your app's dashboard.
Under the 'Settings' menu, select 'Basic' and find the 'Add Platform' button to configure your app's platform settings.
Choose the platform you are using and provide the necessary details.
Go to the 'Products' section and set up 'Facebook Login' if it's not already configured.
Under 'Facebook Login', go to 'Settings' and ensure 'Client OAuth Login' and 'Web OAuth Login' are enabled.
Use the 'Graph API Explorer' to generate an access token with the required permissions.
Once you have the token, go back to the Lazy Builder and enter it as an environment secret.

After setting up the environment secret, you're ready to test the app.

Test: Pressing the Test Button

Press the "Test" button to begin the deployment of the app. The Lazy CLI will launch, and the app will be deployed without you needing to install libraries or set up the environment.

Entering Input: Filling in User Input

After pressing the test button, if the app requires user input, the Lazy App's CLI interface will appear, prompting you to provide the necessary input. In this case, you will be asked to enter the Facebook access token that you have set up as an environment secret.

Using the App

Once the app is running, you can interact with the API using the dedicated server link provided by the Lazy builder CLI. Additionally, since this template uses FastAPI, you will also be provided with a link to the API documentation, which can be accessed by appending /docs to the server link. This documentation will allow you to test the API endpoints directly from your browser.

Integrating the App

If you need to integrate this app into an external service or frontend, you can use the server link provided by Lazy. For example, you can add the API endpoint to a CRM tool to automatically fetch and store leads from Facebook. Ensure that you have the correct permissions and that the external tool is configured to accept the data format provided by the API.

Here is a sample request to the API:

GET /facebook-leads?access_token=YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN And a sample response might look like this:

{ "data": [ { "id": "123456789", "name": "Lead Form", "leads_count": 100, // Additional lead form data }, // More lead forms... ] } Replace YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN with the actual access token you obtained from Facebook.

By following these steps, you should be able to successfully set up and use the "Get Facebook Leads Using API" template on the Lazy platform.

FastAPI endpoint for Text Classification using OpenAI GPT 4

This API will classify incoming text items into categories using the Open AI's GPT 4 model. If the model is unsure about the category of a text item, it will respond with an empty string. The categories are parameters that the API endpoint accepts. The GPT 4 model will classify the items on its own with a prompt like this: "Classify the following item {item} into one of these categories {categories}". There is no maximum number of categories a text item can belong to in the multiple categories classification. The API will use the llm_prompt ability to ask the LLM to classify the item and respond with the category. The API will take the LLM's response as is and will not handle situations where the model identifies multiple categories for a text item in the single category classification. If the model is unsure about the category of a text item in the multiple categories classification, it will respond with an empty string for that item. The API will use Python's concurrent.futures module to parallelize the classification of text items. The API will handle timeouts and exceptions by leaving the items unclassified. The API will parse the LLM's response for the multiple categories classification and match it to the list of categories provided in the API parameters. The API will convert the LLM's response and the categories to lowercase before matching them. The API will split the LLM's response on both ':' and ',' to remove the "Category" word from the response. The temperature of the GPT model is set to a minimal value to make the output more deterministic. The API will return all matching categories for a text item in the multiple categories classification. The API will strip any leading or trailing whitespace from the categories in the LLM's response before matching them to the list of categories provided in the API parameters. The API will accept lists as answers from the LLM. If the LLM responds with a string that's formatted like a list, the API will parse it and match it to the list of categories provided in the API parameters.

Webflow Collection Item Blog Post Draft API

The Webflow Blog Post Publisher is an app that provides an API endpoint to publish blog posts on Webflow as a draft. The API accepts all necessary information to create a blog post, including the Webflow API token. It also accepts extra fields that will be sent to Webflow as part of the fieldData. The name of the new item added to the collection will be the post_name provided in the request. The slug of the new item will be derived from the post_name by replacing spaces with underscores. The API accepts optional fields in the BlogPostData for extra_fields. All the optional fields will be part of the dictionary extra_fields. All the variables in the extra_fields are converted to kebab-case before they are passed into fieldData. The optional fields inside extra_fields variable are post_body, thumbnail_image, main_image, and post_summary. The app requires two environment variables to function properly: WEBFLOW_API_TOKEN and COLLECTION_ID. The post is linked with the collection in Webflow. The COLLECTION_ID environment variable is the ID of the collection in Webflow where the post will be added.
