Overview
This module is no longer maintained. We recommend using Cloud Admin Console/Data Management.
What is Content Management
Content Management is a built-in, out-of-the-box content management tool in CloudBase.
Without writing code, users can start from scratch or generate a user-friendly content management system with one click from a database, supporting various field types such as text, images, rich text, markdown, etc.
The data sources support CloudBase Cloud Database and MySQL databases.
Through a simplified content editing process, it helps developers quickly and efficiently manage content in websites, mini-programs, or other applications, while also enabling data read/write operations via SDK and HTTP API.
