Getting above error in terminal

I am trying to test the model locally ( using rasa 2). I was planning to check the response of my query as Rasa X requires my credentials and shows the data too. How can I use the rasa core API to test the response from the chatbot?

model/parse and other ones are working fine. Can someone help me with this?

Hi @en-ashay. What command are you running that gives you the above error?

A very easy way to test you model locally would be to run your assistant with the command rasa shell that wouldn’t require you to use the API.

Hi @Juste, Thanks for the response. I am using the rasa run --enable-api ( tried with auth token too). I want to share it with my friend but just the testing part as API so he can check the responses are correct or not.

The shell is working fine. I also tried the localhost: port/model/parse to send requests and see the intents and that’s working too.

I tried then sending a request to webhooks but getting an empty list as a response.
