I also posted this question to https://stackoverflow.com/q/57939468/4766.

I have GraphiQL (running in Chrome on macOS) in advanced mode setup with my Elixir/Phoenix/Absinthe web server. It works great for queries and mutations, but when I try a subscription I get: “Subscriptions cannot be run over HTTP. Please configure a websocket connection”:

And it works with GraphiQL in playground mode:

Is this a bug in advanced mode? Or am I failing to configure it properly?

Hi,

Have you ever get to solve this/ configure the and serve interface: :advanced properly for subscriptions?

EDIT: found this documentation for setting up sockets:

GraphiQL works fine in advanced mode for subscriptions in Safari (on macOS), so I got in the habit of using using GraphiQL in Safari and gave up on Chrome.
