Software Version 7.5.0 - build 4099-24

I'm trying to trigger an app id from outside my network using IFTTT & Maker. I know my trigger works correctly because I can can run it from command line using curl.

curl -d '' 'http://192.168.1.156:8060/launch/12'

When I run it in a browser locally nothing happens because I need something to POST and bringing the URL doesn't cause it to POST.
http://192.168.1.156:8060/launch/12

My problem is that in Maker you can select it to POST and the URL but, it's not working.

When I use my external IP like this

http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8060/launch/12

I get this result in my browser.

Access to XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX was denied
You don't have authorization to view this page.
HTTP ERROR 403

The port 8060 if forwarded to the internal IP of the Roku so it should work but, it's not. Is there something I'm missing?

Thank You

What is this "Maker" thing you are trying to use?

You might have better support if you post in the developers forum. This one is more for end users.

As atc98092 said, you'll get better results posting in the developer's forum, but I faintly recall something about not accepting ECP commands from outside the local network. I could be way off there, but there are people in the developer's forum who know a lot more about ECP than I do.

add "-v" switch to make curl more talkative, that ought to help understanding what's going on
