[FIXED] Django call https : [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed

Issue

I have to call a api(requests.post(https://192.168.16.10:8443/api/data,json=data)) in my django .
It's https ,so I install django-sslserver

to run django with https

But I got error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed

What else should I set??

I try to call https://192.168.16.10:8443/api/data directly by Postman , It works well.
It's the django problem

Solution

If you are using a self-signed certificate you can skip certificate verification:

requests.post("https://192.168.16.10:8443/api/data", verify=False)

See requests documentation on SSL verification for details.

Warning: This will reduce the security of SSL as @KlausD pointed out and should be used as a last resort.
