I’m using the Ulanzi clock (running AWtrix) to display a lot of information. I would like to show actual Euro value for Dollar. Is there an app to fetch this kind of information? Also looking for stock values to show. Hope something is available 🙂

For stocks, there’s this dashboard widget: [Stocks App for Homey | Homey](https://homey.app/en-nl/app/net.weejewel.stocks/Stocks/) When the values are present in tags, you’d be able to use them.

For currency you can use HTTP requests for example. I found [this one](https://forexapi.eu/en/docs), requested a free API key, and it works (no clue if it’s a reliable currency converter). Like this:

URL used for HTTP GET request:

[https://api.forexapi.eu/v2/live?base=USD&counter=USD,EUR&apikey=YourApiKeyHere](https://api.forexapi.eu/v2/live?base=USD&counter=USD,EUR&apikey=YourApiKeyHere)

Flow example:

I took “bid" as value, but “ask" and “mid" are available as well.

The notification sent:

It took some time, but figured it out. So thanks for the tip @Peter_Kawa . I now put the value to a variable and use that value in my Awtrix announcement. Now to find something like this for stocks as the stocks app does not store the values of the stocks being presented on the dashboard
