Slack slash command with local web service

I put a local web service (started with 10.xx) in the Request URL section of a Slack slash command setting. When invoking in the channel, it gives me 503_service_error.

Our company is using Slack, and I'm in one of its workspaces, Is there any workaround that this workspace can access a private IP.

PS: the URL I configured is accessible from my desktop.

slack can not access your local network. You have to use some type of http/https tunneling software or router forwarding. We are using ngrok.com for this (as is also recommended by the slack team)

ngrok will gibe you a domain that will point to your desktop computer which you have to configure in your slack app
