Hello, I’m a beginner, i was just wondering if it was possible to, in glitch, retrieve like for example a password created in one page, and retrieving that same password in another page.
If your making a way to store a password in a server or database (where the data can be retrieved) and being able to retrieve it then you can use something called an http request. Basically you send a get request to the thing storing the password like a node js server and the data is retrieved if you make the node js server be able to handle those get requests.

Thank you!! i really appreciate it!
No problem, and if your’e wondering. This is what an http request looks like (they most commonly are in JavaScript):
fetch(“your server url here”)
.then(response => response.json())
.then(data => console.log(data))
.catch(error => console.error(“Error:”, error));
And then in the server code (Node.js code which is also JavaScript):
let PASSVARIABLE=“password here”
if (req.method === ‘GET’) {
res.writeHead(200, { ‘Content-Type’: ‘application/json’ });
res.end(JSON.stringify({ password: PASSVARIABLE }));
}
It should look something like that, so if your are using html and JavaScript with a node js server thats the best way to go, also if you only want certain people to be able to see the password i can help with that too.
