In case you are not interested in installing our certificate, you can ignore SSL errors. Check out the following code snippets for different programming languages, the highlighted part is what needs to be added to your code in order to ignore SSL errors.

How does SSL analyzing works?

Some features require the Proxy Manager to have access to HTTPS traffic. This can be done by enabling the SSL Analyzing option on the proxy port configuration page.

Once you allow Proxy Manager to terminate the SSL you will also need to trust Bright Data Certificate Authority (CA).

Under the hood Proxy Manager will create a secure encrypted HTTPS connection with the target site, decrypt the traffic to log requests and run rules based on your settings and then pass the response back to your client in an encrypted HTTPS connection with a certificate signed by our CA certificate.
