Hello everyone,

I have followed tutorial directly from [rasa.com](http://rasa.com) on how to install RasaX on Kubernetes cluster, I have also watched advanced RasaX course on [udemy.com](http://udemy.com), but neither of them answered my question - how to make HTTP request to RasaX from outside the Kubernetes cluster.

By following the tutorials I have managed:

1. Install RasaX on Kubernetes cluster,
2. Opened required ports and assigned external IP to NGINX pod,
3. After assigning external IP for NGINX, I opened RasaX on my browser ([http://server-ip:8000](http://server-ip:8000))
4. Logged in on RasaX. I’m able to upload the models, chat with the bot, etc.

Now I need to connect my website chat widget with Rasa. I imagine, that to do so, I should do HTTP request from widget back-end to rasa using this url: [http://server-ip:5005/webhooks/rest/webhook](http://server-ip:5005/webhooks/rest/webhook)

The problem is that the external IP within the cluster is assigned only to NGINX pod, not Rasa. As I understand I should do the requests to Rasa through NGINX (or am I wrong?), so the question is how to do so?

The Kubernetes cluster is running on Google Cloud VM.
