Hello ,  
Am new to Node-red.  
Tried to create an incident in service now by posting JSON data to the rest api.

Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND [xxxxx.service-now.com](http://xxxxx.service-now.com) [xxxxx.service-now.com:443](http://xxxxx.service-now.com:443) : [https://xxxxx.service-now.com/api/now/v1/table/incident](https://xxxxx.service-now.com/api/now/v1/table/incident).

But I was able to hit get the response from POSTMAN.

Can anyone please advice.  
PFB the Json flow file.

I notice you have specified https, but have not clicked the secure connection box. I don't know whether that is an issue, it doesn't seem to be documented in the info panel.
