I am trying to send data from my NodeMCU to my local thingsboard installation on my computer. However, I don't know how to do it. I am really new at these stuff, I saw some fine examples with HTTP and MQTT, but there isn't any info about CoAP on thingsboard website. There is a documentation about CoAP API Reference that says I need to send a post request to coap://localhost:5683/api/v1/........../telemetry but when i try to do it with Postman it says cant reach the following adress. I tried doing it with http://localhost:5683/api/v1/........../telemetry and it works. I saw my messages in Latest Telemetry Section in my Device on Thingsboard.
To connect to my Thingsboard installation I use localhost:8080 so I assume my thingsboard server is only started at port 8080 not 5683-> Coap. I would very much appreciate the help.

After enabling coap in thingsboard.yml file, you have to restart thingsboard service on your computer, to do that use "sudo systemctl stop thingsboard" & "sudo systemctl start thingsboard"
