Ask a generic question about the usage of QLC+, not related to a particular operating system

Is there a way to trigger an http request using a dimmer or other means?

Thanks in advance

EDIT:

Answering my own question, creating a script (functions > new script) and using systemcommand seems to be a good way to do this

Neat - can you post the script?

So far I'm using a QLC+ script function to shell out to bash scripts using "system command"

systemcommand:bash arg:/my/path/myscript.sh arg:myarg

To send an http request I'm using a bash script running curl command(s)
