Would it be because I’m trying to send the request to localhost?

yeah - your localhost is not a valid address. localhost only works for requests that have come from the same computer running the local server. The request from Make comes from their servers so it has no idea where “localhost” is. Try setting up a test on your hosting environment and it should work. Alternatively, you could send the request to a service like Postman (an API testing facility). Check the packages that have been sent and then when you move off localserver then you can replace the destination URL.

Thanks for the support! I exposed the local server to the web and managed to test the scenario.
