Are you running n8n or another service in Docker on a Mac and struggling with webhooks that always show http://localhost:5678? This is the ultimate guide to fixing the notorious localhost issue when tunneling traffic through Cloudflare Tunnel (cloudflared).
You'll learn how to properly configure Docker Environment Variables to force your container to use your LIVE, public, HTTPS webhook URL (e.g., https://tunnel.yourdomain.com). This is essential for receiving real-time webhooks from external services like Odoo, GitHub, Stripe, and more!
