Connect ESP32 - DEVKIT V1 to Azure Web Socket

Hi, first post. Let me know if this is not the correct category to ask for.

I have been doing a small personal Project with a Finger Print Sensor and some Web socket functionality.

Everything was working as expected until I deploy the web socket server to Azure.

It seems my DOIT ESP32 DEVKIT V1 board cannot connect to the Web socket Server.

I'm using the Web Sockets library.

#include <WiFi.h>
#include <WebSocketsClient.h>
#include <HardwareSerial.h>
#include <HTTPClient.h>

String deviceName = "ESP-FG-TNT";
char *ssid = "mySsid";
char *pass = "dummyPass"; 
String domain = "flowcontrol9a.azurewebsites.net"; 
int port = 80;
int wifiStatus = WL_IDLE_STATUS;

void connectWifi() {
  WiFi.begin(ssid, pass);

  while (wifiStatus != WL_CONNECTED) {
    wifiStatus = WiFi.waitForConnectResult();    
  }

  WiFi.setAutoReconnect(true);
  WiFi.persistent(true);

  Serial.println("[WIFI] WiFi connected!");
  Serial.print("[WIFI] IP address: ");
  Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());
}

void webSocketEvent(WStype_t type, uint8_t * payload, size_t length) {
  String sPayload;
	switch(type) {
		case WStype_DISCONNECTED:
			Serial.printf("[WSc] Disconnected!\n");
			break;
		case WStype_CONNECTED:
			Serial.printf("[WSc] Connected to url: %s\n", payload);
			// send message to server when Connected
			// webSocket.sendTXT("CONNECTED");
			break;
		case WStype_TEXT:
                        //Code here
			break;
		case WStype_BIN:			
			break;
		case WStype_ERROR:			
		case WStype_FRAGMENT_TEXT_START:
		case WStype_FRAGMENT_BIN_START:
		case WStype_FRAGMENT:
		case WStype_FRAGMENT_FIN:
			break;
	}
}

void connectSocket() {
  webSocket.beginSSL(domain, port, "/webSocket/" + deviceName);
  webSocket.onEvent(webSocketEvent);
  webSocket.setReconnectInterval(3000);
}

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);
  WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);
  Serial.println("[STARTUP] Starting!...");
  connectWifi();
  connectSocket();
}

void loop() { 
  wifiStatus = WiFi.status();  
  if(wifiStatus != WL_CONNECTED) connectWifi();
  webSocket.loop();  
}

I got the following on the serial monitor.

[WSc] Disconnected!

What could be occurring since I tried to connect from postman and it worked! Kinda annoying because it works on localhost.

I appreciate it if you can give advice on the correct way to connect to a web socket.

The default port for SSL web traffic is 443. Port 80 is used for non-SSL traffic. Maybe you should try without the "SSL" in the method name.

Yeah, you're right.
