Feel like this is kind of a newb question, but how would I go about making a http PUT request in luup?

There are many topics on this. Did you search the forum?

Since this is your first post, we have no idea on your level of expertise with respect to HTTP concepts or Lua programming. You’ll get a better answer if you can describe your exact problem and how much of it you already know how to do.

All that I had found searching the forum was how to do a POST or GET, but wasn’t able to do a PUT request with any of those methods. I ended up using os.execute with a curl

os.execute([[curl -X PUT -H "Content-Type:application/json" -H "Accept:application/json" -d "{\"key\":0, \"key2\":0...}"  http://192.168.1.XXX/api/]])

Is there a better way to do this in Lua without relying on sh?
