Documented steps

  1. Create a free ngrok account at dashboard.ngrok.com and copy your authtoken from https://dashboard.ngrok.com/get-started/your-authtoken
  2. Install the agent: macOS `brew install ngrok`; Debian/Ubuntu `curl -sSL https://ngrok-agent.s3.amazonaws.com/ngrok.asc | sudo tee /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/ngrok.asc >/dev/null && echo "deb https://ngrok-agent.s3.amazonaws.com buster main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ngrok.list && sudo apt update && sudo apt install ngrok`; Windows via the App Store
  3. Verify the install with `ngrok help`
  4. Connect your account: `ngrok config add-authtoken <YOUR_TOKEN>` — this writes the token into the agent config file so later `ngrok http` runs work without extra flags
  5. Validate and find the config path with `ngrok config check` (macOS default: ~/Library/Application Support/ngrok/ngrok.yml; Linux: ~/.config/ngrok/ngrok.yml)
