Hello,
I am new to node-red. I would like to know how I can recover HTTP Post Curl data on node red. I leave you the example:
curl -H "Content-Type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded" -c ./cookie.txt -X POST --data '{"id":"1","execute":1,"core" :"user","function":"login","values":[{"username":"admin","password":"sI/7ewBCeWunDs6JXXtSHg=="}]}' http://192.168.45.106/ cgi
Hi and Welcome to the forums!
Not sure I follow completely.
are you using curl to send data to Node RED?
or are you wishing to make a request from within Node RED to a resource and capture the response?
the goal is to retrieve data from a router using this Curl line.
yes I would like to make a request from Node RED to a resource and capture the response.
This should get you going (import it)

EDIT:
Depending on the expected response content type.
you can change the return type on the request node.
you might need to tweak the payload especially values - i.e single quote the object.
const Message = {
"payload": {
"id": "1",
"execute": 1,
"core": "user",
"function": "login",
"values": '[{"username": "admin", "password": "sI/7ewBCeWunDs6JXXtSHg==" }]'
},
"headers": {
"Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
}
}
return Message
I did the same thing as you, but I got an error message.
I have a question what is it for, do I have to add it somewhere

Its a flow that should achieve what you need
Copy this text (I have corrected the payload)

and then import it.
of course, editing anything necessary (like the URL in the request node)
When I change the ip address I get this error message :
To explain things to you the objective is to read the cellular data usage as below.
Access Cookie：
curl -H "Content-Type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded" -c ./cookie.txt -X POST --data '{"id":"1","execute":1,"core":"user","function":"login","values":[{"username":"admin","password":"sI/7ewBCeWunDs6JXXtSHg=="}]}' http://192.168.45.106/cgi
Inquiry data usage:
curl -H "Content-Type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded" -b ./cookie.txt -X POST --data '{"id":7,"execute":1,"core":"yruo_status","function":"get","values":[{"base":"yruo_celluar"}]}' http://192.168.45.106/cgi
Then you can get like below:
Ok - the response might be of an old HTTP version, and may not be supported by NodeJS.
give me a minute.
we can try executing curl from Node RED.
Okay take your time.
try this - its using the exec node to call curl

I think the error you was getting, was due to some response format not being accepted by the NodeJS runtime - i.e an old HTTP Version or something like that.
Great, it's working fine. thank you for your help.

I have a small question, how can I do to keep just the value that is in yellow
Can you paste the result as a JSON string here?
its really difficult to engineer from a screenshot
remove/change anything that is of sensitive data of course
I want to get the value in bold

give me a minute
Replace the inject, with the output of the exec node.
I used inject to emulate the output of the exec
if you debug the output of the json node you will see how it is achieved.

There are other ways, but this is good NR learning for you 
thankfully the output was a JSON string - so we could use a built in node to parse it
I replaced the inject, with the output of the exec node it works perfectly
I thank you infinitely
