[Feature Request] Resource: {url_template} #1

Closed maykar closed 6 years ago

This might be a big ask as I know this isn't supported in the vanilla HA restful sensor, but it would be amazing to be able to use a template as an URL in your modified jsonrest sensor .

I'm not sure what you're trying to do - can you show me an example?

I'm not using the jsonrest component anymore - what I was trying to do has been eventually migrated in a different form in the rest component. For example:

  - platform: rest
    resource: !secret samygo_tv_living_channelinfo
    method: GET
    name: TV Living ChannelInfo
    json_attributes:
      - source
      - pvr_status
      - power_state
      - tv_mode

Are you trying to read resource from a template?

Oh, wow. Wasn't aware that was in there now. Thats great, thanks for that. Yup, that's exactly what I'm trying to accomplish. The api I'm attempting to retrieve requires a start and end date in the url.
