Access another app from CBL

Server Code
1

I have two apps under the same account, A and B. I want to have a custom event handler running in B access some data objects in A. Is there a way to do this? Is it simply a matter of running Backendless.initApp with the correct app and key IDs?

Hi Simon.

AppIds in runner.properties and in Bootstrap.java should be the same.
But I’m not sure how it works in the cloud mode.
I will check this use case and notify you.

Hi Simon.

Sorry for delay with answer.

yes, it is correct. You can set appId and secret key of app A in runner.properties file and in Bootstrap.java and add Backendless.initApp with keys of app B in handler. And you can invoke this handler from app A and send request to app B.
