Hi I have completed the setup for the rhino compute on aws ec2 instance and I am able to call already provided apis from postman. But when I call my custom endpoint it is returning html with endpoint function name. something like this

# GetDesigns

System.String GetDesigns()

What am I missing here ?

I’m not sure that there is enough information here for us to provide adequate assistance. Can you confirm that you’ve gone through [this guide](https://developer.rhino3d.com/guides/compute/custom-endpoints/) on setting up a custom endpoint? Have you confirmed that your plugin is indeed loaded correctly in Rhino.Compute? To do that, you can send a request to your VM and hit the endpoint `/plugins/rhino/installed`. This will return a sorted dictionary of all of the plugins installed by Rhino.Compute.
