Hi,

I am moving a project from NodeJs/Express to Node-Red. To do that, I use a http-in node as http endpoint, and I want to be able to access to the url '/' (in the node http-in), which is the url to access the UI.  
Is there any means to do that ?

Thx

Hi,

I assume you mean you want `/` to route to your HTTP In node and _not_ the editor UI?

If so, you can use `httpAdminRoot` in your settings file to move the path used to serve the editor. That will free up `/` to be used by your own node.

Yes you are rigth, it is to route / in the http-in node.  
Once I have used `httpAdminRoot`, I suppose the the UI is nore available.  
Thx for this very quick answer.
