Hey everyone, I’ve been hacking on something called FlowAPI — it automatically turns a CSV or Excel file into a REST API with CRUD routes, OpenAPI docs, Supabase auth (JWT), and basic rate limiting.

I built it to avoid spending hours wiring up boilerplate every time I need an API for internal data.

Curious how others handle quick API generation from datasets — do you usually script it, use Airtable, or something else?

(If it’s okay per sub rules, I can drop a demo link in the comments.)

Slowrodreguez··on I built FlowAPI – Turn any CSV/Excel file into a REST API in seconds
Hey! I've been working on FlowAPI - a tool that transforms spreadsheets into production-ready REST APIs instantly. The Problem: I was tired of manually building CRUD APIs for simple data. Every time I had a CSV or Excel file, I'd spend hours setting up endpoints, validation, documentation, and auth. There had to be a better way. The Solution: Upload your CSV/Excel → Auto-generated REST API with full CRUD operations What you get: Instant API generation with all HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) Auto-generated Swagger/OpenAPI documentation Built-in authentication (Supabase + JWT) Type validation with Pydantic Real-time analytics dashboard Visual flow charts of your API structure Tech Stack: FastAPI, Python, Supabase, Pydantic Currently in public beta - would love your feedback! https://flowapi.netlify.app/ What features would you want to see? Let me know!
