Self-signed SSL

[ugamarkj]

Does the current package support environments with self-signed SSL certs? I can't figure out what I need to do to pass the "verify=False" argument in requests.post()

Hey,

We support it at the server object level. There is an add_http_options method call that allows you to pass arguments to requests.

You can see an example of this in the sample here: https://github.com/tableau/server-client-python/blob/master/samples/set_http_options.py#L36

Line 36 is the interesting bit there. Let me know if you run into any problems with setting it.

In addition you may get warnings, the workaround is to put this in your script:

import requests
from requests import InsecureRequestWa‌​rning
requests.packages.urllib3.disable_warnings(InsecureRequestWa‌​rning)

Great! Thanks for the help

Should this issue be closed out now, given that I updated the sign-in/sign-out doc to explicitly talk about the workaround for self-signed certificates? https://github.com/tableau/server-client-python/blob/development/docs/docs/sign-in-out.md
