HTTP Data Advanced with placeholders

Votes:

0

Hi, I'm trying to send data to an external website via an HTTP Request (POST) with the following JSON:

{
	"device": "%device",
	"server": "%server",
	"name": "%name",
	"probe": "%probe",
	"sensor": "%sensor",
	"sitename": "%sitename"
}

It does not work, the placeholders are not translation the variable into a value.

Do you have an idea, please?

Thanks

Hello,

Unfortunately, placeholders can not be used in the POST requests. You would need to enter the information directly in the request instead of using the placeholders.

Kind regards,
