Bug Description

What happened

When I attempted to run the CLI to run a collection on a self-hosted deployment, it came back with the error message "Please provide file of extension type .json: cme2hfrzg0001eg04kbxdwg31" even though it was a valid collection ID. I expected that it would run the collection from the self-hosted deployment.

Steps to reproduce

From within the collection viewer, right click on the collection to run, select "run collection", select the "CLI" tab, and copy the command sample that includes the correct collection ID
Paste in notepad, replace the token placeholder with the correct access token, then copy/paste into command line
Hoppscotch tries to run the command, but comes back with the above error message instead of running the collection.

Screenshots

Additional details

I'm on company VPN in order to access Hoppscotch. Proxy is set to "browser" within the app, which works for me when running endpoints within the app itself.

Deployment Type

Self-hosted (on-prem deployment)

Version

CLI - version 0.23.2, App version 2025.2.1

Note that this is similar to issue https://github.com/hoppscotch/hoppscotch/issues/5166 , however the solution used there to set the NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0 environment variable did not work for me.

Hi, since your self-hosted Hoppscotch instance is behind a VPN, could you confirm whether it's reachable at the point where you're running the CLI command?

For example, does a command like curl <your_instance_url> return a valid response?

Yes, I ran curl against the same endpoint (e.g. the one shown in the screenshot ending in "/backend" from within the command line), and I got a 200 response.

The other possibility is that the CLI request is not correctly handling the SSO handshake to the server. The deployment is behind SSO for us to access with employee credentials, the curl request I made to the /backend endpoint leads to a SAML request, which in turn opens a call to our federated identity provider within the browser.

@mirarifhasan Looks like this is assigned to you, any thoughts? I am still unable to use CLI, which takes away a big part of the benefit I was looking for from Hoppscotch.
