    Hi v-vemami , the http.client.request context object is for making server-to-server API calls. You will not be able to test with your localhost using this method. If you do not need a server-side API call, you could try moving your logic to JavaScript/jQuery to call your API. Otherwise, you'll need to host your service in a location that is accessible to Khoros servers.
