Wondering if someone can help me here. Total Noob to Node-Red I'm working on a personal project to capture data from a URL. I'm trying to work out some basic functionality issues. I have a Dashboard form that requests the IP or hostname from the user. Upon submit use the input in the http get n…

Try triple brackets [edit] remove the msg. http://{{payload.ipaddress}}/player/dataset/tables/DMP%2FSystem%2FCounters.html as the mustache template is probably escaping speacial characters

No dice. Same error msg. TypeError: Invalid URL

For fun, I've removed the URL and replaced with http://{{msg.payload.ipaddress}} or http://{{{msg.payload.ipaddress}}} Same error. I've set the hostname to google.com My output box on the dashboard is showing correctly.

Your post dissappeared so i could not say the problem is the msg. in the {{msg.payload.ipaddress}} Remove the msg.. I updated the post above to correct syntax
