Hi

I am new to Ansible and AWX and hope somebody will be able to help me with connecting to AWX.

I have successfully installed AWX using AWX-Operator and Minikube by following the instructions in GitHub.  
[https://github.com/ansible/awx/blob/devel/INSTALL.md](https://github.com/ansible/awx/blob/devel/INSTALL.md)

I’ve reached the section that says “To access the AWX UI, you’ll need to grab the service url form minikube:”  
The IP address returned is 192.168.49.2

This address is not on my network so I am not able to connect to it from another computer.  
I’ve found a few posts which have the same issue, but I haven’t found a solution.

Is there a way to expose the service so that the UI will respond on the IP address and port 80 of the host running the minikube cluster?

Thanks,  
John

You can run a reverse proxy (haproxy, nginx) that listens on the IP/port of your host, and pass traffic to the k8s network
