Looking at the code you previously posted the next problem I see is that your server is using https and your code is using HTTPClient - not https. I am not sure if the ESP8266 can make an HTTPS request, what library are you using?

The SSID and password for the WiFi access point your NodeMCU should use are blank, you will need to enter valid WiFi credentials so the device can connect.

 

This guide walks you through using an ESP8266 device:
