Supported resources
Reference documentation for resources available in apps.
Apps support most Retool resources. Resources are being added incrementally — this page lists what's available now.
Limitations
The following limitations apply to apps compared to classic apps:
- Resource queries run as TypeScript inside functions, not in the visual query editor. The GUI mode, transformers, and query-level event handlers from classic apps don't apply.
- Workflows, Vectors, and webhook-triggered resources aren't yet supported. Resources not listed above can't be reached from an app.
- AI resources only support text generation (including summarization). Image generation, embeddings, and other non-text actions aren't supported.
Footnotes

This row refers to AI providers that can be used when writing an AI resource query for use in a function. It does not apply to the models used to build apps. For models used by the agent to build apps, see the AI models reference. ↩
