to Tasker

I'm sure I'm missing something fairly simple here. I'm trying to create a task to send a message to my server when I get home to activate a task in Node Red.

HTTP Request action:

POST

url: http://192.168.50.5:1880/Tasker

Body: msg.topic=1843

That gets me an error: 1

<!DOCTYPE html> error

...

<body>

<pre-Cannot POST /Tasker</pre>

</body>

</html>

If I take out the /Tasker or the http:, I get <javax.net.ssl.SSLException: Unable to parse TLS packet header>

I've tried several combinations, and I'm sure I'm missing something small, just not quite catching on.
