Before writing code, define the workflow your app should support:
1

Describe your app in one sentence

The best Custom Apps are focused. They help a team complete one job inside Cloud instead of trying to become a large internal system.
A good mental model is to think of each Custom App as a feature of your Blnk Cloud workspace, instead of a complete app.
For our Stripe Sync app, its job is:
Stripe Sync app description
Import pay-ins and payouts from Stripe into Blnk and syncing them with existing customer identities in Blnk.
2

Map your workflow

From there, map the work the app needs to handle. Here’s the workflow for our Stripe Sync app:
StepWhat the app needs to do
Sync from StripeConnect to a Stripe account and read pay-ins and payouts (and related Stripe ledger data as needed). Also sync the customer identities from Stripe to Blnk.
Import to BlnkCreate or update ledger transactions in the selected Cloud instance so Blnk mirrors Stripe activity.
This gives the app a clear boundary of what the workflow is responsible for and what should happen at each step. If done well, you can now easily switch payment providers without worrying about the Stripe data being lost.
Keep the workflow narrow. If the app starts covering unrelated jobs, you should consider splitting those jobs into separate apps.
