Hi  
I have this "URL":

wss://gps-websocket.blackvuecloud.com/?token=(a very long string of charaters)

which will get me some GPS locations. I see in the Chrome-inspect that the GET method is used, but at the same time this is something called websocket.

I have tried this "URL" in the ordinary "https request" node, but no luck. I also see that there are two websocket nodes, but I cannot figure out how to use them.

Can anyone please point me in the right direction, kind of lost here and cannot fint any examples I understand(and can copy)?
