Some ideas what to use HTTP shortcuts for:
- Execute a script on your web server
- Control your Home Automation System and IoT devices

Cool and usefull app. (EDIT: Feauture already exists! Thank you so much! this app is amazing, i figured it out and it works as desired.) It would be awesome if you could add a function to pass a variable on a popup textbox when the shortcut is clicked before the request is sent. For example 1) you click 2) text box appear 3) type text in and press button 4) text passes on a specified variable 5) send the http request.

Does what it says. I could use this if I can define POST parameters at time of execution. I would like to add a parameter but define the value only when I run it.

Clean, simple, effective. Possible feature: Macro buttons to execute http shortcuts sequentially like fit controlling a group of IOT things at once?

Perfect, does what it says. Would prefer the option to make the shortcuts into thumbnails but it's not really important.

Works exactly how I need it to work with sending POST requests to my Home-Assistant server. Instant action, no delay. The app re-opens when you execute a widget so that takes off 1 star. I'd like the app to stay hidden. Edit: Developer responded. 5 stars!

It would be nice to infer protocol from pasted url instead of having to choose it from the dropdown. Also would be nice to bundle some icons.

Please add headers so I can do json. Also need custom json formatted body content

This is so far the best one I've seen. Spent hours looking for an app like this, and most of what I found do not give a lot of features. This one wins hands down.
