Hi all, When I try an do

prefect agent local start --api <http://prefect-server-url-goes-here:4200>

(replacing the

perfect-server-url-goes-here

with the actual server address) I get a connection refused. There is a prefect server running on that machine and I have whitelisted my local IP for port 4200 on that machine. Not too sure how to go about debugging this one so any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Did you start your server with the

--expose

flag?

Genius! Thanks @Kevin Kho that worked like a charm ⭐

Nice!
