How to setup nginx for ssl redirect?

Question

Nginx

Hello!
There is the following hodgepodge:
The server hangs on the host https://myhost.com
Inside, nginx is configured with a redirect to localhost:5000 where the web application is running. SSL is proxied as it should be.
Inside, nginx is configured with a redirect from localhost:8081 to localhost:8080 where the backend is spinning.
When a request is sent from localhost:5000 to localhost:8081 an error occurs

Mixed Content: The page at 'https://myhost.com/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure XMLHttpRequest endpoint 'http://localhost:8081/api/bla This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

How can I make an http request inside the server without raising ssl on the application server 8080?
Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Managed to solve through a third-level domain and an additional proxy through it

Answer 2

Why are you terminating https on the backend and not in nginx?
