Customapi - Is it possible to have multiple queries in a single widget?

[Budlyte]

Example:

widget:
  type: customapi
  mappings:
    - field: 
      path:
         key 0
      url: http://custom.api.host.or.ip:port/path/to/exact/api/endpoint1
      label: Field 1
      format: text # optional - defaults to text
    - field: # needs to be YAML string or object
      url: http://custom.api.host.or.ip:port/path/to/exact/api/endpoint2
      path:
         key 0
      format: number # optional - defaults to text
      label: Field 2

I don't really need similar info from both Mylar & Komga, or other similar combos. So hoping for something like this to work.

Thanks for the info! Here is a pic of the json for the next level up in the URL. Hopefully it shows why we can't drill down in the tree from a higher level.

That's because the return of "api/dcim/" is the JSON you pasted above. You can get each of the endpoints successfully, individually.

I updated this thread to a Feature Request, since it looks like we're asking for the same thing here.

Crap...wrong post...but thank you!

Howdy, I did a workaround. I setup a Krakend container with a config that merges the different endpoint into a single endpoint that Homepage could reference. I used the https://designer.krakend.io/#!/ online tool to get the different fields. I had to only allow and rename the count field for each of the end points. There are some no responses that Krakend doesn't display, but its generally pretty good.

Hi I really hope this can be implemented. I have encountered the same issue using linkding. They have different api endpoints for "Bookmark count" and "Tags count". Both are field "count" in "/api/bookmarks/" and "/api/tags/" respectively.

Adding another voice to the request of multiple endpoints in a single customapi widget. I'm attempting to get counts bookmarks, tags and highlights from hoarder but each is it's own endpoint.

I solved this with a php page that combines json of the two endpoints.
For example:

$player_url = 'http://192.168.0.3:3689/api/player';
$library_url = 'http://192.168.0.3:3689/api/library/count';
$player_response = file_get_contents($player_url);
$library_response = file_get_contents($library_url);
$response = [
    'player' => json_decode($player_response, true),
    'library' => json_decode($library_response, true),
];
header('Content-Type: application/json');
echo json_encode($response);
?>

Then you can query the php page in the custom api and will be able to use the data from both endpoints.
