Local valid certificate not found.

I keep on seeing this warning once I start the viz server and I have no idea why.

 

`powerbi-visuals-tools` is installed globally and I followed the below

 

and I see this.

 

It does not contain any pfx file. I was hoping to see something like below.

 

I am not sure if the Warning on `pbiviz start` would go away if the pfx file is there.

My end goal is to resolve the Local valid certificate issue warning. I am not sure what is causing this.

    I am very keen to hear from you. But I have tried this which solved the issue for me (which I don't know if it was correct course of action). If you can please let me know would be great.

     

    I removed .key and .crt from files from

     

    %appdata%\npm\node_modules\PowerBI-visuals-tools\certs

     

     

    and then ran the following which generated the passphrase and a pfx file. I was able to add the certificate in the Trusted Root Certification Authorities and I don't see the Warning anymore.

     

    pbiviz --install-cert
