  3. Use NGROK to expose the localhost Flask application to the internet
    Download NGROK for Windows(https://bin.equinox.io/c/4VmDzA7iaHb/ngrok-stable-windows-amd64.zip)
    Unzip the file and run ngrok.exe and run command “ngrok http port-number” .
    Here the port-number is: 5000
    Once the above command is executed, it will expose two URLs. One for HTTP and another for HTTPS. Either of them can be used
