http://blynk-cloud.com/d6f128e07xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx3/get/V5
like this:
[“24.000”]
so i want to display this data in gauge and chart on node-red
how can i do this ??
That looks like a JSON string representing an array of one string “24.000” – wiring the output from your http request node to a debug node will show you the data type and structure more clearly. Usually, when a service returns the data as stringified JSON, wire the output to a JSON node to turn it into a real Javascript Object. Then you can use a change node to move the array element into msg.payload, which is where the chart and guage will look to find the value to be displayed…

This channel is for the development of Node-RED, this sort of question is better asked in #general
There’s a great page in the docs that will also be helpful:

Good catch, Mark – I don’t even notice the categories yet, it seems… but he will probably want to use #dashboard instead
