Why would you need that?

I don't think this is doable BTW.

You're right @Christian_Dahlqvist. This is working OOTB on port 443.

oh yes, i tried using 443 and works, not sure why the cloud portal told you the URL has to include :9243.

I need to use 443 because i need to send from multiple sources over internet and usually 443 is not blocked in firewall but other ports like 9243 are blocked.

Thanks!
