Issues with API Call (Web Source) in HTTPS on report Server
Is this an internal web server that you are hitting? One possible explanation is that your client PC has a root certificate installed from an internal Certificate Authority which is not installed on the Report Server machine. Your IT department should be able to help if this is the case.
You could also try check the RSPortal* and ReportingServicesService* log files (usually found at C:\Program Files\Microsoft Power BI Report Server\PBIRS\LogFiles) to see if there are more details about this error in either of them.

Hi d_gosbell ,
thanks for your response. It turns out to be enough to install the certificate in the machine , following for example the following link Import and Export Certificate - Microsoft Windows :: Import and Export Certificate - Microsoft Windows :: GlobalSign Support
Thanks again,
