The ngrok Docker Desktop Extension allows you to use ngrok’s API Gateway cloud service to forward traffic from internet-accessible endpoint URLs to your local Docker containers. The extension provides tools to:
  • Create and manage endpoints
  • Apply Traffic Policy
  • Configure custom URLs and endpoint binding type
  • Enable endpoint pooling for load balancing scenarios
