Ply - Beta - Build internal features into the apps you use, with no-code

@eyal_gershon1 Thank you Eyal!! Your community has been VERY VERY helpful in shaping up Ply. You guys are true pros and awesome (too) early adopters!

@ron_oren_iai Thanks sooo much for being with us from early days. Working with the Imagen team has been awesome. Love building with you!

@on Thanks On!! Yeah, Ply had dev helpers to let you run API calls easily and a code action that currently supports JS. Let us know if there's anything else you want us to support!

@galglik Hey Gal, SSO is coming in 2-3 weeks. We're already on it. We'll support SAML and a few of the popular options. Reach out to us via the chat in the app for specifics :)

@dzianis_yatsenka Hey Dzianis! Thanks! The short answer is that it depends. Let me explain :) The goal of Ply's notifications is to let you build the post-click functionality - what happens after you click a notification. So for example, when someone fills out a Typeform, you want to get the info and act on it (like decide if you want to take the call, or respond with a personal email or proposal with a click. That's the "actionable" part of the notification. As for which apps can send it - they need to support webhooks. We hope to introduced more ways to send notifications in the future. If they support webhooks, you can choose when and about what to get notified with any condition you want. Webhooks aren't complex and if you need help reach out to our team on Intercom through the app and we'll be glad to help out. If the app doesn't support webhooks, currently you can't send notifications from it. Hope this helps and let me know if you have more questions!

@ytross thank you for this full answer, got it!

@matcha_anil Great question. Retool is an amazing product. The key difference is that Retool is made to build standalone tools, and Ply is made to build contextual ones. Because of that, there are a lot of differences in how the products are built - permissions management, capabilities, engine and the builder itself. Also, retool is a developer tool, and Ply is Nocode. While a lot of our users are developers, we also support nocoders in a big way. It's way easier to build with Ply for someone who isn't a coder. Ply is also more opinionated, making it easier to create most things, but without the complete control you would have if you built something from scratch. Classic tradeoffs. A lot of our customers moved some of their Retool apps to Ply, because it just makes more sense. But again, it depends on the usecase.

@tal_bussel Thanks Tal and to entire Aleph team. And thanks for the awesome write up!
