I want to pass messages externally using REST.  
I tried the code below.  
When I checked the execution results in the browser, only the Label item had disappeared. I would like to know the solution.

```auto

Welcome to the forums @takoyaki1211

We can't import that flow as provided, please use 3 backticks (```)

````auto
```
Flow Export Here
```

````

But... if by _ **I want to pass messages externally using REST** _ you mean you want to send Data outside of Node RED, then you need the **HTTP Request** Node not the **HTTP In**

The **HTTP In** node is for sending data into Node RED, not away from it
