I'd love to create or have someone create for me a datafield that pulls it's label and value from a very simple json document at a user specified url.
some as simple as this
{ "Lake Temp" : 87 }
would enable a datafield of label Lake Temp with value of 87 and have it update at whatever interval.
I see from this format that it was impossible 9 years ago but according to Jim it can be done now with background service.
I would do it myself but I think it could be very useful for many people so maybe one of the masters (Jim) on this forum would take a crack at it ?
thanks.
