I am experiencing persistent issues accessing my Node-RED Dashboard in Home Assistant. Despite the Node-RED add-on showing as "Running" and the logs confirming that the Dashboard service has started, I am unable to view the UI.

**Issue Description:** When I attempt to access the Dashboard via the Ingress link, I receive either a **"503: Service Unavailable"** or a **"401: Unauthorized"** error. I have verified that the configuration does not use SSL/HTTPS, and I have tried clearing my browser cache and logging in/out of Home Assistant, but the issue persists. The server logs confirm that the Dashboard service is active at `/endpoint/ui`, yet the Ingress proxy seems unable to route the traffic correctly.

**System Information:**

- **Home Assistant OS:** 17.1 (amd64)
- **Home Assistant Core:** 2026.3.1
- **Node-RED Add-on Version:** 21.0.3

Welcome to the Forums @Vladimir.

Very few here use HA, so you will need to wait of the right person to swing by.  
If no response, it might be better to submit the question to HA forums.

None HA users (me included) dont know what you mean by the ingress proxy, assuming that is a HA thing.

Hi @Vladimir I don't use the nr dashboards but I was able to set up both the original and 2.0. The original is at `yourHAip:1880/endpoint/ui`. 2.0 is at `yourHAip:1880/dashboard/page1`. Where `page1` is the default name, if you renamed your dash use that instead.

When promoted for a user and password use the user/password entered on the config tab of the addon not your HA user/pass. If you are not getting prompted clear your browser cache.

In general using `yourHAip:1880` is the best way to access NR. When prompted for access there, use your home assistant user/pass.
