Rest API to NodeRed-MQTT over flespi with Ninox

UweG

Hello
I have connected 2 MQTT nodes in NodeRed via flespi to transfer a JSON object. This works perfectly.
Now I want to access the one MQTT node from a third party program (Ninox) via REST-API using flespi to transfer a JSON object.
So far it works to transmit a string to NodeRed via the following console command:
curl -X POST --header 'Accept: application/json' --header 'Authorization: FlespiToken XXXXXXXXX' -d '{"topic": "flespiNinoxFrom", "payload": "UweG"}' 'https://flespi.io/mqtt/messages'.

From Ninox, however, the http-call must look like this:
http('POST',URL,Authorisation,Data).
I have written the following code:

let vURL := "https://flespi.io/mqtt/messages";
let vAuto := {
		Accept: "application/json",
		Authorization: "FlespiToken XXXXXXXXXX"
	};
let data := {
		topic: "flespiNinoxFrom",
		payload: "UweG"
	};
let response := http("POST",vURL,vAuto, data)

But get as response: {"error": "Request failed: error - "}
Is it possible to make an http call to flespi in this way, as required by Ninox?

Hmm. Looks correct ... Try to check if your server has access to make http requests to flespi.io. Your firewall may be blocking this request.

Also make sure there are no extra characters in your authentication header like spaces after the token.

You can also write to us in the chat built into the panel on flespi.io (upper right corner), and we will try to help you.

Hello dexif
Thank's for your answer.
On the same network i send the request with Postman and it works. But in Ninox i always get an error as response.
Maybe i ask the Ninox developer if they have an answer where the problem is.
By the way:
So far I have only been able to send a string with the payload. However, the NodeRed MQTT-node also accepts 'parsed json objects'.
Example:
payload:{"TeamID": "1234GHJ789",
"DatabaseID": "OIU098DSA"
}
Is it possible to fill the payload with a json object instead of just a string?

So, i solved the Problem.
I forgot in Ninox-Script some lines

'Text (mehrzeilig)' := null;
**do as server**
	Body := null;
	let vURL := "https://flespi.io/mqtt/messages";
	let vAuto := {
			Accept: "application/json",
			Authorization: "FlespiToken XXXXXXXXXXX"
		};
	let vData := {
			topic: "flespiNinox",
			payload: "{""Name"":""UweGNumber3""}"
		};
	Body := text(vData);
	let response := http("POST", vURL, vAuto, vData);
	'Text (mehrzeilig)' := text(response)
**end**

Now it works perfect and i also find a way to convert in NodeRed the sended string to an JSON-object.
Thank's for your help.

Nice! Thanks for sharing the solution! But don't post your tokens in public places like forums. I removed the token from your post.

Hello dexif
This was a Fake Token. I changed several letters and numbers before published
