Create code pages

Prev Next

App builders use code pages to create and run custom scripts or UI using code like HTML, CSS, or JavaScript. The code is added to an app in a way that app users can use, like a button, hyperlink, or formula URL field.

Learn more about building code pages and get more detail in Extending Quickbase.

Create a code page

  1. In App settings, add a new page.

  2. Select Code page, and then select Create.

  3. Add a page name, including a file extension like .html or .js.
    Quickbase displays pages as plain text if a file extension isn't in the page name.
    We recommend using a name without spaces.

  4. Add content to the page, and then save your page.
    After you save, you're taken to the list of the pages for the app. 

Link to a code page

  1. On the list of pages for an app (App settings > Pages), find the page to link to.

  2. Select the Preview this page icon  , in the last column of the list. 
    This opens a preview of the page in a new tab.

  3. Copy the URL.
