Show API's response in Node UI

I'm sorry, but I think you need to start from the very beginning here and describe exactly what sequence of events you want to happen. To be frank, I'm trying to find a way to explain that what I've already shared with you a few times is exactly what you want. There are only so much time I can spend repeating it.

Is the following a fair description of what you'd want to happen?

  1. a user drags on an instance of your node to their workspace
  2. they double click it to open its edit dialog
  3. within the edit dialog the user is shown some information that has been retrieved from the REST api
  4. the user makes some selection and closes the dialog
  5. the user deploys the node and their flow does whatever its configured to do
