You should check and ensure $url, requestType and ...req.headers are correct and that you can curl that endpoint. And why not ask your question with their correct values instead of using variables whose values we don't know. In any case, here's something working in express

const axios = require('axios')
const express = require('express')
const app = express()
const port = 4000

app.get('/', (req, res) => {
 res.send('Hello World!')
})

const url = `http://localhost:${port}`;

app.listen(port, () => {
 console.log(`Example app listening at ${url}`)
})

axios({
 url: url,
 method: 'get', // tried with post and put too
})
.then(res => {
 console.log(res.data)
})
.catch((err) => console.log('error :>> ', err))
