I'm just starting to explore TextBlaze, coming from TextExpander, and the first thing that I'll miss is Script snippets. I'm told there's no plan to add this type of snippet, but I'm wondering what the possibilities are for making API calls as a command in a snippet. Pretty much all of my Script Snippet needs could be met if there were a way to ping a REST API for a JSON response, and then select the key(s) from the response to output in a snippet. Is this something that's already possible, or is this a feature request?
Hi @Brett_Terpstra, and welcome to the forum.
Check out the {urlload} and {urlsend} commands.
You can find a few examples using these commands here and here (there are a few more in the community and the gallery).
Let us know if this addresses your needs.
