Is it possible to trigger the REST API modular input from a search instead of waiting for the next polling interval tick
No , there are no interprocess communication hooks from the search language to the REST API Modular Input's python process.
You could however investigate writing your own custom generating search command that performs RESTful requests for you. The core logic for this custom command could even reuse the code from the REST API Modular Input (open source on Github)
Hi Damien,
Do you know anyone that has done this or have any new examples?
Thanks,
Dan
