    Hi @rsutar 

     

    What do you mean it's restricted?

     

    If you are trying to access an endpoint (e.g. an API, PC, website, whatever) by using it's DNS name and that name resolves to an IP address that you can't access, then the issue is not the flow, it's that you don't have access to the IP address.

     

    What IP address are you expecting to connect to?  If it's different to what DNS is resolving to then either your DNS needs changing, or you should use the actual IP address of the API you want to connect to, rather than using a name.

     

    More info about your actual process and some pics of your flow may help.

     

    regards

     

    Phil
