How do I dynamically render options in custom nodes

Describe the problem/error/question

hello,
I am revamping the http request node, one of the requirements is that the url section be changed to options and that the data be dynamically retrieved from the database, users can choose from the url options provided. However, I found that the rendering of options seemed to be static, and the nodes were used after the construction, making it difficult to call the api or read the json for dynamic rendering of this information, is there any way to fulfill this requirement?


		displayName: 'URL',
		name: 'url',
		type: 'options',
		default: '',
		description: 'The URL to make the request to',
		required: true,
		options: [
			{
				name: 'http://example.com/test1',
				value: 'http://example.com/test1'
			},
			{
				name: 'http://example.com/test2',
				value: 'http://example.com/test2'
			},
			{
				name: 'http://example.com/test3',
				value: 'http://example.com/test3'
			},
		]
	},

What is the error message (if any)?

Please share your workflow

Hey @mentaimao,

Welcome to the community :cake:

Glad to hear you worked it out, What did you do in the end did you go for the loadOptions method?
