Setup Instructions

Connect Lovable to Your Xano Backend

Build your backend in Xano first, then let Lovable generate a frontend that's already wired up to your API.

How It Works

1. Build your API endpoints in Xano
2. Go to API > Documentation in your Xano dashboard
3. Click the link at the top of the documentation page that opens
4. Save the JSON file — this is your OpenAPI spec
5. In Lovable, start a new project and attach the JSON file to your prompt
6. Tell Lovable to use the backend you've already built in Xano and to refer to the attached API spec for all endpoints and data structures

Tips

• The more descriptive your endpoint names and descriptions are in Xano, the better Lovable will understand your API
• Be specific in your prompt about what kind of frontend you want — Lovable will map it to your existing endpoints
• If your API uses authentication, mention that in your prompt so Lovable sets up login/token handling correctly
