Refresh Data at vs. intervals for Fetch JSON Modules

[nathanbiller]

Might it be possible to specify specific times to refresh data AT instead of/in addition to the frequency that the data gets pulled?

I'd like to specify a JSON call AT 9am, AT 1pm, and AT 7pm.

I'm pulling menu information 3x/day for breakfast/lunch/dinner. Right now it's set up to refresh every 30 minutes which is more than I need for most of the day but not often enough for meal change times. I have a scheduled text module that changes AT a specific time and it would be nice to coordinate this change with the change in menu so that when it says "What's for lunch" the breakfast menu isn't still live.

My workaround now is to simply set the refresh frequency to once/minute. However, this results in thousands of superfluous calls each day.

Another workaround might be to include that header text in JSON request, but this would then require the ability to format-independent JSON fields differently.

Thanks for your consideration!
