How to send data to html template?

yogi · August 29, 2021, 4:30pm

Hi,
does anybody have any good examples to dig through how the data object should be handled in code when sending data from client to template?

I have a simple lower third with 2 fields (f0, f1) and I’m not sure how to get the data from client to my template.

Thanks!

Thanks, so this means that the client is sending the data as a JSON object?

Some clients does, some send the data as XML. So it is preferable to use a JavaScript library that abstracts away this. See indr’s tutorial for a guide on how to do that.
