How to use Forge Design Automation without ngrok?

Question

I am trying to go through the "Modify your Models" example from https://learnforge.autodesk.io/

Unfortunately ngrok is not working in our corporate network. If I try to run any of the command below

ngrok http 3000 -host-header="localhost:3000"
ngrok http 80

The only thing I get is:

listen tcp 127.0.0.1:4049: socket: An invalid argument was supplied.

and the tunneling is not working.

Is there any other option available?

Answer 1

you can try running ngrok in admin mode, and ngrok is one of the many ways to listen to webhooks.

If ngrok is prevented on corporate networks, you can try https://webhook.site/#!/db7c735c-bcb8-49c8-8e5d-51ec8d5937ad, and pass the link to the app.
