title: Change Directus 7 API url on the Dashboard in Docker
body: <p>I am trying to use <strong>Directus 7</strong> in Docker and I have encountered the following problem:</p>
  
  <p>I have not been able to change the API URL in the Dashboard (APP), no matter what I assign to the environment variable <code>API_ENDPOINT</code> or <code>API_URL</code>. Whenever I open the dashboard it tries to go to the url <code>http://localhost:7000..../ping</code>, and since the API is not found there, it fails.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any way to change the API URL in the dashboard in Docker ? I am using the images: <code>directus/api:latest</code> and <code>directus/app:latest</code></p>
  
  <p>You can see the example i am using in: <a href="https://github.com/directus/docker/blob/master/examples/single-api/docker-compose.yml" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/directus/docker/blob/master/examples/single-api/docker-compose.yml</a></p>
  
  <p>Thank you for your help.</p>
