I created a microservices project. auth-service, user-service, chat-service, frontend-service, and so on.  
I wanted to make this on the ubuntu20 vmware.  
So I created pods and services in the microk8s for every services.  
And I created an ingress so all APIs of the services can be called via the ingress.

This is the content of the yaml file for ingress.

```auto
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: Ingress

          - path: /api/user
            pathType: Prefix
            backend:
              service:
                name: user-service
                port:
                  number: 80
          - path: /api/checkout
            pathType: Prefix

```

```auto
$ kubectl apply -f ingress.yaml

$ kubectl describe ing fishapp-ingress

```

I can confirm that auth service’s api is working through cluster ip address.

```auto
$ curl 10.1.243.223:9080/health/ready
{"checks":[{"data":{},"name":"Auth Service Readiness Check","status":"UP"}],"status":"UP"}

```

But auth service’s api is not working through localhost

```auto
$ curl localhost/api/auth/health/ready
$

```

I want to expose APIs of multi-services through the localhost of vmware.  
Please help me.  
Thanks in advance.
