Build custom frontends on gRPC
With Retool you can build a frond end on top any data source. Join data across your Databases and APIs. Simplify internal workflows. Manage access to your app with granular permissions.
Retool understands your gRPC protos out-of-the-box
Connecting Retool to gRPC enables you to build user interfaces on your data fast. Our gRPC integration provides drop downs for all your services and their methods, along with templates for every request.
Connect to gRPC directly
To build Retool apps with your gRPC data, mount your proto files onto your Retool on-premise deployment and let Retool handle the rest. Also, Retool allows you to communicate with your gRPC services across environments and choose from a variety of authentication strategies.
Build faster with 100+ drag and drop components
Retool's library of 100+ drag and drop components – think tables, buttons, text inputs, lets you build your front-end in no time. Connect components to requests to your gRPC data, and you've got yourself a working tool in no time.
