Hi community!
I’m working on integrating an Electronic Shelf Label (ESL) system with Coda through their API. The challenge is that this API only supports HTTP (port 8082) and doesn’t have HTTPS available. I understand Coda’s security-first approach of only supporting HTTPS, but in this case, we’re dealing with a hardware vendor’s API that we can’t modify.
Current limitations:
- ESL API endpoint: http://domain:8082/api/handle
- No HTTPS support available from the vendor
- Can’t modify the API endpoint
- Hardware vendor has no immediate plans to implement HTTPS
I’ve considered using a proxy service but before implementing that workaround, I wanted to check:
- Is there any way to make Coda work with HTTP APIs?
- Are there any plans to support HTTP in specific cases?
- Has anyone faced a similar situation and found a solution?
Thanks for any insights!
