I’m attempting to entry my lightning node, a part of a BTCPayServer occasion through REST api however not getting any response from it. I’m operating this kind of python script on the VPS
https://api.lightning.group/?python#v1-channels
with corresponding location for tls.cert and admin.macaroon however getting this error

    ConnectionError(e, request=request)
requests.exceptions.ConnectionError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host="localhost", port=8080): Max retries exceeded with url: /v1/channels (Brought on by NewConnectionError('<urllib3.connection.VerifiedHTTPSConnection object at 0x7f1f7b1c8a00>: Failed to determine a brand new connection: [Errno 111] Connection refused'))

I used to be anticipating a json with channels on the node.
