    • Best way to grab output from a web-based API call?

      I can create a URL for a simple API request over HTTP. And I can URL Escape it, to make it safer to use. But I can't see a simple way using the in-built workflow actions to make the HTTP call and capture the resulting text output.
      The examples on this site, and the ones in Federico Viticci's eBook, have very few examples of this type of operation. The closest option seems to be to usen the "Open URL" workflow action for the built-in browser, but then the closest variable to get the resulting text from it is [Browser Selection], but that doesn't return anything if there is no selection.

      I'm sure I must be missing something simple ... all help gratefully received.

      Thanks, jldiaz. That looks easier enough to use as I'm a programmer in other languages.

      I wonder if there could be a built-in workflow action for this, to make it easier for non-programmers?

    • Text obscured when using bluetooth keyboard

      Is it just me or is anyone else finding that the bottom line of text, where the current insertion point is, is sometimes partially or fully off the bottom of the screen when using an external keyboard?

    • Spell checking - more than US English?

      Is it possible to get Editorial to spell check in UK English, rather than just US English?

      Thanks,

      Jonathan
