Viewing Destination Transfers
This guide demonstrates rendering transfers for an existing destination for your users to inspect.
Step 1: Creating a getTransfers
function
getTransfers
functionIn your frontend, call the useGetTransfers
hook to generate a function that fetches a scoped auth token and uses it to get transfers for the destination scoped by the token. Leverage one of the fetchToken
functions you wrote in Building an "Add Destination" Connection Form here to create one.
const getTransfers = useGetTransfers(
fetchToken, // fetchToken implementation, takes an ExistingDestination
"app.example.co", // the origin of your React app (used to allow CORS),
PREQUEL_HOST // Optional (default api.prequel.co): the host url of your Prequel API
);
Step 2: Using getTransfers
getTransfers
Use getTransfers
created in Step 1 to fetch transfers for the given destination.
// Local state to store transfers
const [transfers, setTransfers] = useState<Transfer[]>();
// Async function fetches transfers from Prequel API
const fetchTransfers = async (existing: ExistingDestination) => {
const transfersResponse = await getTransfers(existing);
setTransfers(transfersResponse.data?.transfers);
};
useEffect(() => {
fetchTransfers(destination); // Fetch the transfers for selected destination
}, [destination]);
Step 3: Rendering transfers
transfers
Render the transfers
fetched from the Prequel API for inspection.
const Transfers = () => {
// Transfers fetching elided
return (
<>
{transfers.map((t) => (
<div key={d.id}>
<p>{t.id}</p>
<p>{t.status}</p>
<p>{t.log}</p>
// ...other transfer fields
</div>
))}
</>
);
