http_sensor's Issues

No data is received

Tried running this plugin, but not able to receive any data. Unsure if we are supposed to put the entire string IP:5000/api/httpsensor/sensor#/10 in the "key" section when adding a new sensor?

Tried multiple ways of adding the httpsensor string, but cannot get any value.
Running the CBPi3 on both controllers. The main controller is trying to recieve sensor data from the fermentation controller.

Unit of the sensor

Hi,
it works well.
Is there any chance to change the unit of the sensor?

Any specific projects that you saw with this feature?
