This is not possible because it was considered a security risk. The default TinyWebDB instance is shared by all App Inventor users unless they switch to running their own instance of TinyWebDB. I think either Dave Wolber or Lyn Turbak did a version of TinyWebDB with special keys one could read to simulate this, but I don't have a link available at the moment. You might be able to find it in the forum history.

Hi, you can build a custom and simple TinyWebDB with PHP and then get all items.


Only upload this file to your hosting (server)... mi_tinywebdb_v2.php

Then in Properties of TinyWebDB write (example): http://youhosting.com/mi_tinywebdb_v2.php

Then you can get all data, my example: http://kio4.esy.es/mi_tinywebdb_v2.htm









mi_tinywebdb_v2.php

It's a pity that this is not possible because I wanted to build my own TinyWebDB server and post a tag for each user of the app. Nevertheless thank you for your answers.
