I’m wondering if it is possible to make an HTTPS request with my Notecard and Swan MCU directly to a server’s IP address without routing through notehub. ---

Hi @Voxorin and welcome to the Blues Wireless community! This is a good question and actually answered in another forum post that you can consult here (happy to answer any follow up questions you may have though): > [@Sending Data to AWS without a route?](https://discuss.blues.com/t/sending-data-to-aws-without-a-route/587): > > I am trying to understanding everything must go through Notehub? Can’t I send data to AWS directly without setting up a route through Notehub? For example using an Arduino MKR 1500 NB with a data plan there is a canned example: This sketch securely connects to an AWS IoT using MQTT over NB IoT/LTE Cat M1. It uses a private key stored in the ATECC508A and a public certificate for SSL/TLS authetication. It publishes a message every 5 seconds to arduino/outgoing topic and subscribes to messa… ---

Hi @RobLauer, thank you for your quick response. I read through that forum post and see that what I want to do is not an option. I need to make a get request every 10 seconds with about 5 devices. The $0.0006/event fee may make Notehub financially unfeasible for my organization. Is non-routed requests a feature you and your team would consider adding? ---

Hi @Voxorin, I’m curious to know a little more about your use case so we can see how to best address it. I’ll reach out via a private message shortly. Thanks, Rob ---

Hey @Voxorin, I wanted to circle back on this thread and make sure you were aware that we’ve made some improvements to Notehub pricing that are relevant to this discussion: removing per-project platform subscription fees and limits, a consumption-based event model, and free credits for each account. You can read more [here](https://blues.io/blog/subscription-based-pricing-dead-consumption-pricing-is-in/) and [here](https://blues.io/pricing/), and let us know if you have any questions! Brandon
