Hi,
Thank you for your interest in our plugin.
Yes, of course. In fact that’s the only way to do it. Our plugin doesn’t have an option to upload the JSON file, only provide a URL to it.
You can read more about it in our documentation.
Also, if you have any more questions or issues, you can always open a support ticket under pre-purchase section on our support platform https://tmsplugins.ticksy.com/, and our support manager will gladly help.
Best regards.
Thanks – have just tried with no success – I get an error when I click apply:

The link does return data in another plugin (JSON Content Importer)
Is there an error log available?
Thanks
Hello again,
The 500 Internal Server Error is a server-side error, meaning the problem probably isn’t with your computer, Internet connection or plug ins but instead is a problem with the website’s server.
Can you please investigate your server log and see if there are some errors.
Best regards.
Use WP rest routes
https://wordpress.org/plugins/rest-routes/
The reason why a traditional WP REST API URL won’t work is due to it returning a non-2-dimensional JSON array.
But Rest Route returns every 2 dimensional!
Just make sure NOT to include the “https” when added the URL to WPDatatables.
