Embed JSON API Widgets from apiwidgets.com into your WordPress website. Convert JSON to Tables, Charts or HTML using an API or a JSON file.

== Description ==

This plugin allows you to easily embed Widgets from [API Widgets](https://www.apiwidgets.com) into your WordPress website.

With [API Widgets](https://www.apiwidgets.com) you can convert JSON data into Charts, Tables & custom HTML with just a few clicks and then embed these on your website. After embedding, the data will update automatically at your chosen interval.

You can connect an API and convert the JSON data from the API or you can use your own JSON files.

### How It Works

1. Visit the Converter at [API Widgets](https://www.apiwidgets.com/builder).
1. Add URL to your API (or a JSON file).
1. Select either Table, Chart or custom HTML.
1. Run the Converter.
1. Customize how your Table, Chart or HTML should look.
1. Click Publish.
1. Get the ID of your new Widget & embed into your site.

With this plugin installed, you simply need to add the shortcode or template tag wherever you want the Widget shown on your site.

**Shortcode**

Add this shortcode (using your own Widget ID) wherever you want the Widget displayed.

`[api-widgets id="123"]`


**Template Tag**

Add this template tag (using your own Widget ID) wherever you want the Widget displayed.

`<?php api_widgets( 123 ); ?>`
