## About Backendless with LuumenAI

Connect Backendless and Luumen can read your app backend directly from the terminal: table objects with filters and sorting, file listings and counts, Hive maps and counters, timer schedules, and user records. Changes — moving files, updating a map, creating a timer, removing a stale directory — run as previewed steps you approve first. Luumen authenticates with an API key.

- `BACKENDLESS_DIRECTORY_LISTING` — Retrieve a listing of files and directories at a given path.
- `BACKENDLESS_GENERAL_OBJECT_RETRIEVAL` — Retrieve objects from a specified Backendless table with filtering, sorting, and pagination.
