[Qgis-user] Http access to json return

[Ben Hur Pintor]

Hi!

If it's a vector layer (e.g. geojson response) that you'll load via API,
you can try using the Data Source Manager -> Vector Tab and use *Protocol:
HTTP(S), cloud, etc.*. You can select the proper *Type* and input the
*URI* similar
to the image below. This will load the file/response as a QGIS layer.



I haven't tried it yet for CSV / non-spatial data though.

All the best,
Ben Hur
