Unable to reach Kibana on http://ipadress:5601

I'm trying to set up Elastic Stack on Azure to monitor my app services running on Azure.
I have set up a new vm on Azure where I installed Elasticsearch, Kibana and Logstash using Azure CLI.

When I try to go to http://ipadress:5601 I get this site can't be reached.
It's the same if I go to localhost:5601 inside the vm.
So far I have tried to troubleshoot like this:
When I type netstat -an | grep 5601 I get nothing, and port 5061 is not listed when I list all ports.
When I type curl "http://localhost:5600" I get:
curl: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 5600: Connection refused

When I type sudo service kibana status I get (amongst other values):
Active: active (running)

So my guess is that it is something worng with the network port, but I dont know what it is and how to fix it, would love if you could point me in the right direction.

What IP did you set for broadcast in the Kibana.yml file?
You should set it to the ipadress and make sure that either the port is accessible from the firewall or forward 80 to 5601 or something like that.
