VPN blocking API calls --- AWS VPN

Hello all!

I need to set up an api call in bubble… Im quite familiar with API setup, but this has me stumped.

In order to run this api call, I need to run this behind an aws vpn.

When I run the call in the postman desktop app, it works… however when I try it in the bubble app, i get an error, and the call does not even return a response. Its just blocked.

Anyone dealt with this type of VPN issue before?

There are a lot of possible failure points, its hard to guess what is going on with so little information

Yeah, thats why I am a bit lost… dont know where to start.

I also found, that when just enter the get request in the browser, i receive a successful response.

Ive successfully been able to run the call and get a 200 repsonse

  • In the postman desktop app
  • Entering the url in the browser

Ive not been able to run the call (i dont get a response, its provides me with this error → The host ------ . com is not valid)

  • In bubble
  • In the webversion of postman

All 4 of these scenarios is when the companies AWS VPN is turned on. If the VPN is off, the request will not work regardless.

Hi Pete!

I am having the same issue right now. How did you solve it?
