Any example how to connect to an api sending GET vars and show the data on the UX?

The api (made with json) requests are formated like this “movie.apib/discover/movie?sort_by=popularity.desc” and it need an api key that you have to send using an http parameter like this “https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/550?api_key=##”

that request will respond with a list of the movies sorted by popularity.

i need to get that response and list all the movies (or at least 20 of them).

Thanks

To get data over http, please refer to https://www.fusetools.com/developers/forums/howto_discussions/how_to_connect_to?page=1#post-763232f0-cf97-4532-a497-4742a892ff28

To parse json, please refer to https://www.fusetools.com/developers/forums/howto_discussions/how_too

You can then create UX elements from your Uno codebehind and add to your UI.
