| Hi, I recently wanted to upload my JSON software configuration from my remote device each time the device re-boots (infrequently) so I know the configuration it is using. I found the string has a 256 length limit. I need around 1000 characters. Is there a way to set the string length limit? I then looked at uploading files, this could work for me so I created a stream with datatype of File. I tried to show the file in a dashboard. My next question would be how to get the latest file in a file type stream to show up in a URL widget. Or, how can I show a long string in a dashboard? I would need to get a link to the latest stream point of a file or string stream and use HTML or URL somehow I think. Thank you! Michael |

| This worked for me: 1. Created a file with json in it. I named mine: settings.json 2. Created a File Stream: * Component ID=comp1 * Stream ID=settingsFile 3. Dragged settings.json onto the file stream 4. Test: Paste file stream url into a browser to test it was bringing back the lastest file and displayed the contents: https://www.grovestreams.com//api/comp/comp1/stream/settingsFile/feed/file/settings.json?org=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001 5. Created an HTTP widget: * Click widget settings * Under HTML, select Source Edit in the toolbar * Paste This: This might only work if the file name has the right extension like ".json" |
