How to run ThingsBoard from the public IP address of my AWS instance

Question

I am running a Ubuntu instance in EC2 AWS, I have installed ThingsBoard on Ubuntu following the documentation of ThingsBoard but to run the ThingsBoard platform, I am supposed to do it through the localhost address but I can't as I am connecting to the instance through SSH.

I have the public address of the instance and I want to run the ThingsBoard platform through that public IP address.

Could you please explain to me how can I open ThingsBoard from the public IP address of the instance?

Did you follow this manual? https://thingsboard.io/docs/user-guide/install/ubuntu/?ubuntuThingsboardQueue=aws-sqs

According to the documentation, after installing all packages and configuration, you can connect to the web UI on port 8080.

So you can connect to your instance through the public IP on port 8080, after adding the port to the inbound rules of your instance security group
