Help with Parcel Tracking

[beatrizq]

Description

I'm trying to use the api from https://parcelsapp.com/api-docs/#/Tracking%20Request/post_shipments_tracking to track my shipments but have little idea on how to do this. The custom-api widget automatically fetches a json but I need to first provide the tracking number. Is a form even possible on the Go template? Or should I use an extension widget instead? Any help would be very much appreciated.

There's currently no support for passing data from the frontend to the backend as Glance was intended to be heavily read-only.

Then how does the Todo widget work? Isn't it a sort of submit form as well?
