THanks Mr. Fire

I like to stay on the previous one as it does give me graph's where I ( hopefully soon ) can see the line going down again.
With the text sensor there is no graph. But still MANY THANKS for the work !

b.t.w. I made it running every 15 min so my sensors do not go red...

Hi,

@freijn,

As said, I made it quick, as you reported that the site was not working anymore.
Yes, and I put it in a simple text file, but you can easily combine the two solutions, if you want.

You can change that. See: Setup > Settings > Other > Sensor Timeout

I think the webdeveloper does not want to read data from his site and maliciously changes the code. I suspect he was looking for references to https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ and found this topic.
So I could maliciously improve the flow every time, but it doesn't make sense. There are alternative ways to obtain data as above.

@xury

Your solution gave more info, which is not available at the URL I use.
If you want that extra information, you may use the following URL and collect the required JSON data.
https://coronavirus-19-api.herokuapp.co ... etherlands

Insert your own country at the end.

Regards

Thank you @FireWizard. I still scraping from this site, but not release a upgraded flow on public.
In comparison both sources showing the same data for my country.
