Connection Error
Hi Anonymous
The problem is caused by thhe system the API is on not having an SSL certificate and therefore not supporting an HTTPS connection.
There's nothing you can do from your end on your PC to fix this, the changes must be made on the system/computer hosting the API.

Hi Anonymous
Do you have access to the API system to install an SSL certificate? Most people don't and your initial query didn't indicate that you did.
The problem is that the API doesn't support SSL/HTTPS. If you can install an SSL cert on the system hosting the API then that will fix the issue.

No I don't have the access to the API to install SSL. Our netowrker team currently can't provide the SSL certificate on that. I have have the credentials to access the API and the JSON files.
SO they suggested me the links
https://powerbi.microsoft.com/pl-pl/blog/ssl-security-error-with-data-source/
I downloaded the self signed certificate by following the link
But still getting the same error.
Is it possible to do it from my side. Enforce self signed certificate in Local machine.
If not then what shall i response to the networker team cause I am naive to the networ server security issues.
