Hei,

I have an issue that all our apartment homes run on custom insecure cert (which we cannot change). And customers want to make Siri commands to automate the AC with Shortcuts app.

Seems like if customer tries to run the shortcut which makes a POST with headers and body to insecure URL then they get an error message "there was a problem running the shortcut". Seems like Apple Shortcuts app does not allow to make post request to insecure URLs? Is there a way to get around it?

Regards, Robert

Tried in Postman and everything works when "Enable SSL certificate verification" is turned off. When it is on then the POST won't go through. So I suppose Shortcuts have this SSL certificate verification enabled :).. if nobody knows any way around it then maybe someone can give some hints to make an simple app which will show up in shortcuts app but can make request to insecure url.
