Data recieve in Octoprint

Development

Hello everyone,
can I enter my own data in Octoprint or also carry out reports?
I have a project where I retrieve the data from Octoprint via Arduino API. I use this to control an automatic filament changer with humidity control. I would like to display the humidity and temperature in Octoprint and pop up a message when, for example, the filament is almost used up.

I appreciate your help and time.

Hi there :tentacle:
One way to do that would be with the help of mqtt.
It of course depends on which device you're using on the filament changer side.

Here's a nice mqtt plugin that you can use for reference to write your own plugin.

and here's a plugin that shows temperature in the navbar.

Would definitely require some kind of plugin to be developed.
