Fix Current Live API

Job ID: 40005013

Budget: ₹12,500 – ₹37,500 INR

My production REST API has gone completely silent—no response to any call—for a little over a month. Nothing changed in the codebase, server configuration, or connected services during that period, so I need a fresh set of expert eyes to pinpoint what went wrong and bring the endpoints back online.

I can provide:
• Source code repository access
• Current server credentials (Linux)
• Sample requests that used to work
• Recent Nginx and application logs

You’ll need to dig into the stack (Node.js + Express, MongoDB, Nginx reverse proxy), trace the failure, and implement the fix directly in the live environment. Please test with cURL or Postman to confirm the API responds with the expected JSON before handing it back.

Deliverables:
1. Root-cause explanation and the lines/files changed
2. Working, responsive API verified via a sample GET and POST
3. Brief prevention recommendations so the outage doesn’t recur

If this sounds straightforward for your skill set, let’s have the service talking again today.
