I am using Traefik as my ingress controller in Kubernetes. However, I want to use the Kubernetes ingress and the HTTP providers.

I tried to edit the default k3s Traefik pod to add the HTTP provider, but the configuration failed. I have attached the spec part of adding the HTTP provider below.

The endpoint `https://apps.example.com/api/traefik` has been tested with a Traefik proxy outside Kubernetes and works fine.

```yaml
spec:
  containers:
  - args:
    - --global.checknewversion
    - --global.sendanonymoususage
    - --entrypoints.metrics.address=:9100/tcp
    - --entrypoints.traefik.address=:9000/tcp
    - --entrypoints.web.address=:8000/tcp
    - --entrypoints.websecure.address=:8443/tcp
    - --api.dashboard=true
    - --ping=true
    - --metrics.prometheus=true
    - --metrics.prometheus.entrypoint=metrics
    - --providers.kubernetescrd
    - --providers.kubernetesingress
    - --providers.kubernetesingress.ingressendpoint.publishedservice=kube-system/traefik
    - --providers.http.endpoint=https://apps.example.com/api/traefik
    - --entrypoints.websecure.http.tls=true

```
