Hello,

my customer want to use FlexBI together with SERP, so it is required to setup SSL connection.

I tried to use self-signed certificate but I got the following error:

Hi,

It's recommended to setup SSL connection. You can also use file import without SSL. More information on how to setup the connection between Standard ERP and Flex.bi here: https://docs.flex.bi/support-center/how-to-set-up-standard-erp-https-with-self-signed-


Make sure to follow this instruction If you are using Flex.bi enterprise: https://docs.flex.bi/support-center/https-or-ssl-setup

Best Regards,
Rasmus
