I think I've just been bitten by this :(

I have a stack with the following resource type:
    type: OS::Heat::Stack
    properties:
      template: { get_file: "https://url_to_template" }
      timeout: 60
      parameters:
        key_name: { get_param: key_name }
        image_id: { get_param: image_id }
        instance_type: { get_param: instance_type }

It works perfectly from the command line. But not from the dashboard. There I get the error "No content found in the "files" section for get_file path"... From a users point of view this is not nice: using url's should allow you to launch the template from the dashboard. You should not have to download them to your local machine and use the command line client. I'm not alone in this, btw: https://ask.openstack.org/en/question/65776/need-clarification-of-heat-template-get_file-with-http-resource/
