07/28/2023, 4:09 PMIs it possible to create an HTTP connector to localhost for testing? When I put a localhost url into the Base URL field I get an invalid domain error

07/28/2023, 4:13 PMWe also use Cloudflare tunnels or ngrok.
e.g.
Copy code
cloudflared tunnel --url <http://localhost:50051><https://something-random.trycloudflare.com>👍🏼 1
