Configuring Network Ports in Posit Connect

This section describes how to configure network ports in Posit Connect.

By default, Connect uses port 3939 for HTTP and port 443 for HTTPS.

Configuring a custom HTTP port

You can configure custom network ports by editing the configuration file and restarting Connect.

For example, to change the HTTP port to 80, add the following lines to the Connect configuration file:

File: etc/rstudio-connect/rstudio-connect.gcfg

[HTTP]
Listen = :80

Then restart Connect by running the following command:

Terminal

$ sudo systemctl restart rstudio-connect
