I am currently trying to wait for a request to finish, to test a

cy.get(...)

. My API, which I would like to intercept is on a different host (e.g.

https://example-api.azurewebsites.net/something/something2/MyFunction/something3/something4

), than my website host

http://localhost:4200

. I tried

cy.intercept

with an alias. But either I get an authorization error (when using

https://...

for

hostname

) or my

cy.wait(@getMyFunction)

runs into a timeout.

ts
it('...test', () =>{
  cy.intercept({
    method: 'GET',
    url: '**/MyFunction/*',
    hostname: 'https://example-api.azurewebsites.net',
  }).as('getMyFunction');

  cy.visit('/').wait('@getMyFunction', { timeout: 30000 })
  cy.get('some-content');
});

Cypress finds the alias, the

intercept

is not correctly configured. But I have no idea, what to change, to make it work. Does anyone know, what I am doing wrong in this procedure?
