Rest Command to publish sensor data to WordPress

[deputyd0ng]

I’m trying to create a rest command (or maybe it requires a script)? That would update a Wordpress post with values from a temperature sensor. (Maybe some others down the road)

I have the rest api working to a point where I can get the sensor data out of HA. I also can make/ update a post on WP from postman.

But I’m lost when it comes to use my WP API in HA to publish json sensor values. The WP is self hosted on unraid with a domain I own and is configured correctly.

I looked into “mqtt cogs” which seemed like a winner and got it to subscribe to my MQTT feed, but I think I messed up configuring the cron jobs, but it’s built in short code for displaying data looked like it was exactly what I wanted.

Anyone have any advice or a better idea?
