Hi, I´m using node-red-contrib-tibber-api without problems, but something internal seems to be wrong, my micro-sd card has been written full (20GB) with these messages from Node-Red:

In debug there is no error showing, everything is fine.
Any idea what´s going wrong with the tibber live feed, who is writing my sd-card completly full ?

There are two issues here.
1. Why is the node apparently spamming syslog with messages
2. Why is not syslog getting rotated so that old data is deleted.
For 1, I suggest you ask a question on the [node's issues page](https://github.com/bisand/node-red-contrib-tibber-api/issues)
For 2, what does this command show?
`ls -l /var/log/syslog*`

```auto
ls -l /var/log/syslog*
-rw-r----- 1 root adm 235083 3. Jul 07:50 /var/log/syslog
-rw-r----- 1 root adm 1589989 2. Jul 00:00 /var/log/syslog.1
-rw-r----- 1 root adm 21 27. Jun 21:47 /var/log/syslog.2.gz
```
I think it is rotating each week

There is only a few MB there. Where are the GBs you mentioned?

I´ve deleted them and disabled the nodes

Well it is difficult to diagnose the problem if you have deleted the evidence.

the inventor of tibber api is looking for the problem...

@Colin do you know how I can make a tibber api query on my own?
```auto
curl \
-H "Authorization: Bearer 5K4MVS-OjfWhK_4yrjOlFe1F6kJXPVf7eQYggo8ebAE" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-X POST \
-d '{ "query": "{viewer {homes {currentSubscription {priceInfo {current {total energy tax startsAt }}}}}}" }' https://api.tibber.com/v1-beta/gql
```
[https://developer.tibber.com/docs/guides/calling-api](https://developer.tibber.com/docs/guides/calling-api)
with this:
```auto
subscription{
liveMeasurement(homeId:"xxxxxx"){
timestamp
power
accumulatedConsumption
accumulatedCost
currency
minPower
averagePower
maxPower
}
}
```
I don´t know how to put that in http request.
the tibber-api live feed is quering every 2s, I would do it 5 oder 10s on my own.

No, that is not an area in which I have good knowledge. Probably someone else can help convert the curl to an http request.
