I'm guessing you need a browser to run the actual code on the web page. Unless there's a button to push, but it seems that you are just going there?

In Quick drop (CTRL+Space) type HTTP...
Or in the palette, go to Data Communication>Protocols>HTTP Client.
You'd have to do a OpenHandle, a post, put or get (it depends, all could work), and a CloseHandle.

I think you'll need to look at the source code so you know what to do? It's funny, I didn't even think of standard http. That's why I don't create web pages, I suppose.

It's not a website that's opened.
The device has a web server. By doing a HTTP GET, the webserver gets a trigger that does some action based on the URL.
This is pretty much how REST works, although there can be content in the body of the commands, for instance a value to set, in the form of raw data, XML, JSON.
A URL in a browser does the same, the URL triggers a server. But for webpages, the response is a webpage.
