1 - the link you provided is not your node-red flow it is an html page  
2 - most people will not down load a file.

To provide your flow, open NR and go to the hamburger menu. Select `Export`, click on all flows, click the "Copy to clipboard` and add it too a reply.

In order to make code readable and usable it is necessary to surround your code with three backticks (also known as a left quote or backquote `````)

````auto

You can edit and correct your post by clicking the pencil ✏ icon.
