Web hooks - wrong request format error

Need Help With My Project
1

Hi, I am using D1 mini and sucessfully connected to blynk app. When I tried to use web hooks it states that wrong request format from browser. My link is as follows:

http://188.166.206.43/Myauthcode/update/D5

I am from India and I pinged in the cmd and got the result as 188.166.206.43
I want to use the Pin D1 in my wemos D1 mini.

From the following link i found out the pin corresponding to arduino is D5

I’ve found an article like this problem but in the end it is solved by using personal message hence it is not useful for people like me. Link of that incident is as follows:

Please tell me where I am going wrong in this regard.

Thanks & Regards

Hi Costas. I did went through the posts since Feb 1 but unable to find the exact error that is rectified. If you can please share me the link so that I can solve the issue.

Just getting into electronic and coding. Sorry if my question is very basic.

You can’t use a local IP.

It is not a local ip. This ip address is for whole India region as far as I know .

Ok I see it’s a Digital Ocean IP.

Is that your server on Digital Ocean or Blynk’s?

What do you get if you bash the url into a browser?

What do you get from a browser if you switch WAN IP for LAN IP?

8

Ok’s it’s the Blynk server and it gives the expected response for a bad token in a browser with WAN IP. What does it give you for your token in a browser?

It redirects to https://www.blynk.cc when I put the IP address 188.166.206.43 on the browser.

I am attaching the screen shot

You should use http://blynk-cloud.com/Myauthcode/update/D5 for your issues, blynk.cc does not have a running blynk server on it. And there is no need in the IP address as a host.

By the way, if you are trying to change the D5 pin on some other board - it would be better to use Bridget widget: http://docs.blynk.cc/#widgets-other-bridge

Thank you all. I will try and update the status.
