TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'request') when creating workflow from dashboard (v2.3.0)

[rashika-kind]

Hi Novu Team,

I'm encountering an issue while self-hosting Novu v2.3.0 on my server.
All containers — api, worker, ws, and dashboard — are running the v2.3.0 image and are healthy.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Deployed all services (worker, ws, api, dashboard) with version 2.3.0
2. Navigated to the dashboard in the browser (dashboard loads fine)
3. Attempted to click "Create Workflow"

Received this error:

Sorry, but something went wrong.
Please contact our support team and provide the event id for the reference.
Event Id: 963118510394489d9337a37d66756a6a.

The API works correctly via curl — I can create workflows, steps, and trigger events without any issues using the backend endpoints but couldn't with UI dashboard.
Let me know if I can provide more logs or .env entries.

Thankyou!

This is happening if the services is deployed on HTTP. After moving to HTTPS, it works.
