and wiremock is setup through docker compose like so ``` wiremock opensanctions image public ecr aws s4w6t4b6 wiremock wiremock 2 32 0 networks pti hostname wiremock opensanctions restart unless stopped volumes wiremock opensanctions home wiremock user $ UGID command proxy all= <http localhost 1234> record mappings```

I think I know what s going on the use of `localhost` inside a docker instance that won t work

Hi < Remi Cartier> yes localhost would refer to the Docker container s loopback interface rather than the host s You can usually refer to the Docker host via `host docker internal` however so this might be worth trying as your proxy target
