Hi,
Please excuse the simple question.
I am trying to get installation data via the VRMAPI via node red.
I am just looking for a bit of guidance as to how to code the node red to make the necessary PUT's/GET's to get the information.
I have tried HTTP request in node red putting in my usename and password (which I have tested to see that it works within the VRM API documentation site), but within node red I just get 'invalid credentials'.
I have done this by setting the msg.data value to be my username and password, msg.url to be the 'https://vrmapi....' url, and the method to be POST, then injecting this into a http request.
If anyone could point my in the right direction to get this to work it would be appreciated.
The reason for me trying to get the installation data is so that I can use the past usage data along with the forecast data available to better utilise my batteries and to be able to programmatically control how much energy I pull from the grid in the Octopus cheap electricity window on a daily basis.
Thanks for any help,
Graham.
