Trying to query an API with a self-signed cert. it seems standard ways of ignoring certificate errors in JS / Node do not work in the serverless runtime. How can I make this work?

Hi&nbsp;[@lucas\_hocker](https://community.dynatrace.com/user/32376)

the standard way of ignoring certificate errors does not work yet. In the next month you should be able to use the https node module which which you should be able to skip the certificate check for a reuquest.

Best,
