Hello Experts,
We are planning to fetch data from the website using REST API. Programming is in webdynpro ABAP.
To fetch data, We need to call API using HTTPS protocol. To create HTTP request, We have created RFC destination under 'HTTP Connections to External Server'. By default it takes HTTP and to make it HTTPS, we need to select SSL flag under 'Logon & security' tab. Problem starts here, after selecting SSL flag we were not able to connect to external website. Then we did some search and found that we will have to import certificate for external website under STRUST. We did that and it worked.
We are looking for the solution in which, we can avoid importing certificate. Because as discussed with one of the security colleague, he told us that it is not good practice. It is kind of hard coding of certificate. Can any one of you help us to connect using HTTPS to external website to fetch data.
I think this is very common use case and many would have worked on this. Please let me know if you need more information.
Best Regards,
Ronak
