Is there a way to connect Azure Bot Services to locally-hosted bot using Ngrok?

We are developing a Microsoft Bot Framework bot. Eventually this will be hosted on a site different from Azure but, as I understand it, the channel will pass through Azure to the remote host. I'd like to test this topology using a locally hosted bot and Ngrok.

I'm able to provide a public URL for the bot using Ngrok, of the form 

http://ee384838.ngrok.io -> http://localhost:3000

and I'm also able to get a public URL for the Azure of the form

https://something.azurewebsites.net/api/messages

How do I configure the Azure bot services to direct the messages from the Azure URL to the Ngrok URL? I can't find anything on the many control panels in Azure Bot Services. I thought "Channels", but that doesn't seem to be it.

Thanks for any clues!

Go to your Azure Bot Service, under Bot management click on Settings you will find Messaging Endpoint under configuration
