Common questions

What can go wrong with configured URLs in the TrueNAS Hoppscotch app?

The app may add trailing backslashes to the website URLs you enter. This can break the admin website's connection to the backend API.

Why might Hoppscotch need repeated page refreshes behind a reverse proxy?

Self-hosted deployments behind a reverse proxy, such as Apache, may require many refreshes before pages work. The admin dashboard can be affected by the same behavior.

What deployment areas are covered by the self-hosting guide?

It covers configuration management, container deployment strategies, database setup, and post-deployment administration.

What self-hosted editions of Hoppscotch are available?

Self-hosted Hoppscotch comes in Community and Enterprise editions.
