How to configure generic messenger?

[vindhyahegde2114]

I am trying to configure generic messenger to my API. And when I test configuration, I am getting this error message "Messenger testMessenger [https://localhost:44393/WeatherForecast] returned response code [-1]"

Hi @vindhyahegde2114 --

Generic messengers are meant to be flexible. Can you provide some more details about what you are attempting to accomplish and the expected output (as well as any additional errors)?

You can also follow our guide here -> https://fusionauth.io/docs/v1/tech/messengers/generic-messenger/

Thanks,
Josh
