Creating PDFs on apps with restricted access

If you're on a Bubble agency plan, or have restricted access to your app via the 'Privacy and Security' tab in the 'Settings' section of your Bubble editor, you may run into an issue where the PDFs you create with PDF Potion are blank.


This occurs because PDF Potion actually needs to navigate to the target page in your application to generate a PDF. If you have a login wall (like in the image below) that prevents access to your app, PDF Potion won't be able to create a PDF.

To allow PDF Potion access your app, you can add the username and password you are using to restrict access to the 'Username' and 'Password' fields in the 'Create PDF' action. For example, in the app below we're using the username 'testuser' and the password 'testpassword' to restrict access:

Adding these details to the 'Username' and 'Password' fields in the 'Create PDF' action will allow PDF Potion to access our app and create PDFs:


If you've followed these steps but are still get blank PDFs, feel free to contact our support team at this link.
