How to ignore SSL certificate validation errors in Bold BI

Overview

Bold BI requires a valid SSL certificate to communicate with other internal services. If the SSL Certificate is not valid or self-signed, we will not be able to connect the Bold BI internal services. To overcome this issue, Bold BI has the option to ignore the SSL Certificate validation errors in the administration section.

How to enable the ignore certificate validation error

1. Login with the Bold BI admin account and go to the site settings.

2. Below the Site URL field, the Ignore the SSL certificate validation errors checkbox will be available.

3. Enable the check box and save the settings.

This will ignore the SSL certificate validation errors while connecting the internal Bold BI services.

We strongly recommend the use of a valid SSL certificate in production environments to mitigate security issues. Please refrain from disabling this setting unless it is absolutely necessary.
