Hello  
I willed open dashboard in external acces but if created nat forwarding on port I expose the dashboard and the admin (config flow).

Do you have a solution for exporte in web juste the dashboard ? It is possible to have not the same port for the dashboard and admin ?

Thanks

Yes, but not in Node-RED, you have to use a reverse proxy for that. But if using a proxy, you don't need to do it since a proxy can expose only what you want and you would often use it to hide Node-RED's port anyway.
