Hey guys,
I'm trying to fetch site stats via the API in node red or the HTTP request node. Basically I need to get my site total energy consumption. I've played around HEAPS with the configs to figure out how to the make the call but can't get it to work. The HTTP node doesn't seem to work but the API node by Victron works but not with a custom request.
Can anyone provide some examples of how they setup theirs?
Kind Regards
Using HTTP node.
I'm no programmer so probably way better/cleaner way to do this but this is what i used
Just replace the input node with whatever sensor and change the topic:
