Hey there!
Here’s how you can move forward: 1. Host your own lightweight proxy
• Clone any of the open-source proxy examples (they’re just small Node/Express projects) and swap in your own Voiceflow API key & projectID.
• Two good starting points:
– Analytics proxy recipe → https://github.com/voiceflow-gallagan/vf-analytics-proxy
– General demos → https://github.com/voiceflow/demos-n-examples (look for the “custom-interface” or “simple proxy” folders).
• Deploy it to Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare Workers, etc. – you’ll get a new HTTPS URL you can call from Webflow. 2. Point your Webflow site at the new URL
In the JavaScript embed you added to Webflow, change the fetch/axios target from
If you already have a serverless function in Webflow (or another backend) you can also skip the proxy and hit the Dialog Manager API directly: https://developer.voiceflow.com/v2.0/docs/dm-api – just remember to keep your VF API key server-side. After redeploying you’ll be able to replicate the exact same behaviour the tutorial showed – the only difference is that you’re running the proxy under your own account instead of the deprecated shared one. Hope that helps! Ping back if you hit any snags.
template.proxy-voiceflow.com was only a demo endpoint we spun-up for the original Webflow walkthrough – it isn’t kept online, so the 404 you’re seeing is expected.Here’s how you can move forward: 1. Host your own lightweight proxy
