Unable to connect to strapi end points (404 Not found error)

I don’t know if all you guys found the solution to this. But I was able to solve this by updating the permissions of the api. In “Strapi Dashboard” select “Settings”, then in section “Users & Permissions Plugin” select “Roles” and edit the “Public” role by clicking on the small pencil. Find the api you want to access and set the permissions accordingly. You should be able to see the content by entering …/api/your_api_names (in plural).
