Deploying Tunnel

The Tunnel container can be run with Docker using the example below or similarly with other container orchestration platforms.

  --env TINES_TUNNEL_SECRET="secret" \
  tines/tines-tunnel:latest

The Tunnel service will utilize the routing and DNS services of the host it is deployed on.

Using Tunnel

HTTP Requests can be sent through the Tunnel by utilizing the "Use tunnel" parameter in the configuration of a HTTP Request Action.

Connectivity Requirements

The tunnel is built on Cloudflare Tunnels and requires connectivity to Cloudflare to function. No inbound ports are required. See Connectivity requirements for the firewall rules to allow.
