I'm trying to create a pseudo REST proxy and can't even get basic functionality to work. I have Node Red running on a RHEL 8 server in Azure. I can connect to it fine on 1880. In order to check basic functionality I have an http in node configured with /ping going to a template node with only the c…

Looking at your image, i would guess that you have it configured to a GET request and path /Ping!. But that is just a guess as i can not see how you have configured things from a image of a flow. try http://localhost:1880/Ping!

Going to another machine both the curl and http://192.168.1.45:1880/pingi…

Wooo, testing in production. I too like to live dangerously.

Well, there's two things to that... :slight_smile: This was supposed to be my development server but we ended up solving problems and currently have no where to "export" the solution. We're working on setting up an Azure IoT instance where I can hopefully dockerize each "solution" so they run inde…

So I got it working, turns out I had to do https:// instead of http://.

I plan to do an update/restart of Node Red, but I have to wait until Sunday as this instance is used in production.
