I'm using ktor also as a client to connect to a https API with self-signed certificate, and I was wandering if there was any way to validate the requests knowing the other end has self-signed cert (skipping CA)

Hi @Alan Pierri, what engine do you use?

[Alan Pierri]

Hi! I'm using the default engine

But I might migrate to Apache

You could configure certificate stuff with SSLContext in Apache 🙂

[Alan Pierri]

Great! Any docs on Apache engine configuration? (besides the sample config on ktor.io)

[Alan Pierri]

If you happen to know one already, if not I'll investigate. You've been very helpful!

You could read here about ssl context: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/javax/net/ssl/SSLContext.html

[e5l]

And use customizeClient in engine configuration to set sslContext

Thanks!
