My way of using Signal-CLI-Rest-API to send Editable Messages in Home Assistant

There are multiple ways to send a Signal message in home assistant. This post describes my way of sending Editable Signal messages using the signal-cli-rest-api. I choose to use the REST integration to build a script that is able to send messages while can also edit sent messages. The default way using notify does not allow you to edit messages, so this is a workaround to send messages that are updatable.
