Benefits of Custom Code Blocks
Even if you aren't proficient in coding, AI Co-Builder enables you to perform complex data operations (such as API transformations) that typically cannot be handled by standard Softr blocks.
Output Validation Tip
Always 'Review' AI-generated code before running your workflow live to ensure there are no syntax errors or logical flaws in your data.

Softr AI Co-Builder
Write a JavaScript script to transform input data into a structured format suitable for a LinkedIn post asset, ensuring the output includes a headline and a body text segment.
Step by Step
Using AI Co-Builder for Custom Scripts in Softr
- Open the workflow editor within your Softr dashboard for your application.
- Identify the part of the workflow where you need a 'data transformation' process.
- Click to add a new step and select the 'Code' block from the component list.
- Choose your preferred programming language, either 'JavaScript' or 'Python', in the block settings.
- Click the 'AI Co-Builder' button located inside the code editor to open the AI assistant interface.
- Enter a prompt specifying exactly what you want the code to do (e.g., format data for a LinkedIn post).
- Click 'Generate' and wait for the AI to automatically build the script.
- Review the code draft generated by the AI to ensure the logic is correct.
- Click 'Save' or 'Apply' to integrate the code into your workflow step.
- Test the workflow by clicking the trigger button (e.g., the 'Generate assets' button) on your app's UI to see the results.
