[Qgis-user] Http access to json return

[Karl Magnus Jönsson]

Hi!
I’m also interested this functionality. Need to use OAuht2 authentication but that seems not to be available. Guess there is just an solution programmatically then.

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

Hi Steve,

Not that I know of, but:

- you could have an onload Python script that runs when the form opens

- you could have a web-widget with an onload javascript that does some network requests

Such rather "developer centric" questions are more likely to get responses on the qgis-developer mailing lists, btw.

Greetings,

Andreas
