"peer not authenticated" in IDT when connecting to https

[former_member195544]

I am trying to create an ODATA connection in Information Design Tool (4.1 SP2).

In the Service Root URI, if I use HTTPS, it gives me an error: "peer not authenticated"

I have this issue in both external (like https://api.datamarket.azure.com/data.ashx/data.gov/Crimes/) and internal websites

Any idea how I can fix this?

Hi Nadim,

I know this is an old posting, but did you ever get this issue resolved?

Thanks.

I got this to work with https by importing the server certificate into the jre (~\\win32_x86\jre) locally where my IDT is running.

Old posting,... but Gheorghe's reply helped me solve this same issue.

Here are all of the steps:

• Open the URI address with your browser.
• Export the ODATA site's certificate to a local file.  (google "export site cert chrome" for how to export a cert)
• Run following steps via a batch file or command prompt.  RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR.
