Approved host is causing access denied exception in business logic timer.

General
1

I had the host api.datamarket.azure.com approved in the management console. I get the following exception when executing a debug version of a timer. What can I do to fix this? I have re-downloaded the generated code, rebuilt it, and restarted CodeRunner.sh several times.
Code which is being used:

final String accountKey = "(MY KEY)";
   final String bingUrlPattern = "https://api.datamarket.azure.com/Bing/Search/v1/News?Query=%27QUERY%27&$format=JSON";


   System.out.println(bingUrlPattern);


   final String accountKeyEnc = Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString((accountKey + ":" + accountKey).getBytes());


   final URL url = new URL(bingUrlPattern);
   final URLConnection connection = url.openConnection();
   connection.setRequestProperty("Authorization", "Basic " + accountKeyEnc);

Exception I get:

Hi Evan,

Open bin/runner.properties. The very last config item is going to be a list of permitted hosts. Add yours in there (twice - with and without necessary port). Make sure to restart your code runner.

Hope this helps.

This did it, thank you so much for your incredibly prompt reply!

I tried this. Still get this:
java.net.UnknownHostException: backendlesstest.chargify.comm backendlesstest.chargify.comm backendlesstest.chargify.comm backendlesstest.chargify.comm backendlesstest.chargify.comm: unknown error

at java.net.InetAddress$2.lookupAllHostAddr(InetAddress.java:928)

at java.net.InetAddress.getAddressesFromNameService(InetAddress.java:1323)

How should I add api.sendgrid.com using port 443 when that site is https?
