I want to send some data to my [Dakboard](https://dakboard.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/35000062047-external-data-fetch-formatting-options), but I don't know how to make the flow. As I can read I need to add a URL in the fetch option in Dakboard settings. How do I make this URL in Node-Red?  
I was thinking of displaying some room temperatures and humidities from Sonoff devices using MQTT. The MQTT Mosquitto broker, Dakboard and Node-Red is running on the same Raspberry Pi.

I too am looking to do the same thing. My Dakboard is operating on it's Raspberry Pi. Figuring out how to integrate the two of them would be awesome 🙂

You will need an http endpoint that returns your data to the dakboard. And another flow to get and hold your data. Examples can be found in the cookbook

I did not use https. Just my ip address and port number  
[http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1880/hello-data](http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1880/hello-data)

Actually, I am using another public port for security reasons 🙂
