Using cache endpoints to share data
Cache endpoints allow you to publish the data you store in Mechanic's cache, making it available via a private JSON API. For more on the cache itself, see Using the cache.
Cache endpoints may be configured in your Mechanic settings:
Enter the cache key of your choice, and save to receive a unique cache endpoint URL. The URL, when accessed, will return a JSON response containing the value associated with that cache key.
Alternatives
If your data can't be reasonably represented with JSON, consider storing a base64-encoded version of your data instead, using the "base64" filter in your task script.
If your data must be stored long-term, or is quite large, consider using the "ftp" action in concert with a service like Couchdrop, to send your data to a more appropriate storage location.
