Node red http in

Third party integrations Node-RED

hey!

I’m trying to trigger automation in node red using the “HTTP in” node.

I’m using tasker to send “HTTP post” when connected to home wifi with payload “home”
and another one with away when disconnected from home wifi.

when I tasted both by running the tasker task I was able to trigger both of them.
but when i tested them when i wasn’t connected to my home wifi both failed.

I guess it has something to do with home assistant remote access

for the server:port I’m using my home assistant IP and Node Red port

How do you access nodered when you’re not on your network? Have you tested you can? Have you configured tasker the same?

Personally, I’d look to use an ha webhook, rather than nodered, especially if you have nabucasa.

of course there was an easier way…
