Hello everyone, I am having trouble calling the REST API on the Fineract demo website https://www.fineract.dev/
I am using Postman to send my GET request. My request is to get the list of all the clients as detailed here https://demo.mifos.io/api-docs/apiLive.htm#clients_list URL: https://www.fineract.dev/api/v1/clients Response: and I am getting a 404 response <h1>404</h1> <p><strong>File not found</strong></p> <p> The site configured at this address does not contain the requested file. </p> Any help would be much appreciated.
