@sdetweil You brilliant person!

Solved and many thanks.

Made a total rooky mistake to not allow outside comm through the config.js file.

Hi
I am trying to add IFTTT to Magic Mirror’s modules.

When I test my connection with localhost it works, but as soon as I test my connection with my static external IP in CLI, I get: “curl: (7) failed to connect to [external ip] port 8080: connection refused”.

IFTTT’s error is: “Action failure message: Error: Error: connect ECONNREFUSED [External IP]:8080. Unable to make web request to http://[External IP]:8080/IFTTT”

The test script I am running is based on the documentation:
curl -X POST -H “Content-Type: application/json”
-d ‘{“message”: “Your pizza is ready!”}’
“http://[external IP]:8080/IFTTT”

I have forwarded port 8080 on my router internal and external to the Magic Mirror’s IP address.

Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance
