Need to send a file for an API endpoint and use the response

[martinewski]

Hello fellow Hazlers!

I need to send a file to an OCR API endpoint which will process it and send me a response which I'll use to rename the file.

I know how to do it in cURL, but apparently Hazel can't use shell scripts' response later. Am I right? Do you have any suggestions on how to do it in another way?

Not sure what you mean. You can have a shellscript use curl and return a proper success or failure based on the response.

What I need is the response content (JSON), not only a success/failure.

You need to send the whole JSON back to Hazel? What would Hazel do with it after that?
