Is it possible to use JSON looper provider that is a JSON URL?

Support
#1

I have a .json url that gets updated name / scores, i would like to import that into the page so i can modify the look and feel of the content that is brought in by the json url. I’ve watched the xtheme tutorial videos on loopers but im having trouble making it work with the .json url. im not sure if there is another way around this or if im doing something wrong?

Here is the JSON url - https://pinballwizards.us/ttd/scores.json
Here is the text version - https://pinballwizards.us/ttd/vpinhub.txt

The main details I want to pull are ‘name’ ‘score’ ‘game’
And as those change on that URL it would auto update on my site.

I can manually paste the JSON info from that URL and then use a looper consumer to show the ‘name’ ‘score’ etc. but that is static and i need it to be dynamic.

Hello @dustin_harvey,

Thanks for writing to us.

Regretfully there is no option to pull the JSON from the URL or pull the JSON file from any specific link just because you are not able to process the Looper. In order to achieve the feature you need to create a custom Looper. In case you have not seen the doc of custom looper please have a look at this doc to learn more about how to create custom looper.

Hope it helps
Thanks for understanding
