Admin panel for entering data for Parse.com?

Question

If an application using Parse needs a web-based data administration system, what's the best way to go?

I know that Parse.com already offers a data browser, but its main use case is not for mass data entry or for performing administrator functions. I know that I can do this from scratch with the libraries found here on the Parse API Library page , but I was just wondering if there is a standard or most used way to use Third-party admin panels.

Answer 1

Given that there is no “standard data manager”, except perhaps allowing them to edit all fields on all objects (which are provided by the data browser), I did not expect to find any third-party admin panel.

What you do and do not reveal in the admin interface often varies from product to product, some fields may be there only to support easier searches and be read-only (or hidden) even on admin screens.

Unfortunately, this means that you need to minimize your own admin screens using any SDK that suits you best.

Remember that (the last time I checked), the JavaScript SDK only works for Internet Explorer if your pages are hosted on SSL (https) due to a quirk in IE. If you want to support IE, you can use Parse Cloud Hosting.
