Send a JSON command via remote

Hi everybody,

i searched the list of built-in functions but unfortunately i dont find a action to send JSON commands.
Is there a way to do this?

Best regards Marxon

Use JSON-RPC or kodi-send.

Send text to kodi

I am running latest stable version of LibreElec, sending text to Kodi does not work from the web interface or by using Kore remote.

I have also tried running this command:

curl -v -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"Input.SendText","params":{"text":"<text to send>","done":false},"id":1}' http://<host>:<port>/jsonrpc

it says it sent ok, but nothing is displayed?

Thank you Da Flex!
I already found this topic while searching the forum but did not read it because i thought it is about sending json to kodi and not the other way.
I will give it a try.
