Web Request - MAHO LABS
The web request node makes it possible to send any HTTP request directly from the Gira X1 or L1. This allows REST APIs to be addressed, webhooks to be triggered, smart home devices to be controlled and data to be retrieved from external services – Shelly relays, Home Assistant, inverter APIs or Pushover notifications, for example.
Placeholders such as {temperature} can be used in the URL and body. The node detects them automatically and creates a dedicated input for each one. HTTPS is fully supported, and certificate validation can be disabled selectively for local devices with self-signed certificates.
Key features
• All common HTTP methods: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, PATCH, HEAD, OPTIONS and CONNECT.
• Authentication via basic auth or bearer token; the relevant fields appear dynamically depending on the selection.
• Up to ten custom HTTP headers plus a selectable content type for POST and PUT.
• Variable placeholders in URL and body that are created automatically as inputs.
• Adjustable timeout and optional SSL bypass for local devices with self-signed certificates.
• Outputs for response, success, busy, HTTP status code and a detailed error message.
