Hi,

I'm new to Node-RED and I'm trying and doing some easy first steps.  
I have solar-edge node installed using the right site-ID and API-ID but get stuck with the following error  
"Error: unable to verify the first certificate"

What where to adjust.  
At another flow I had a http request and was able to solve the problem with msg.rejectUnauthorized: false; but that does not work in this solar-edge flow.

NB: tried the same flow on another computer ... and i did receive data .. so it seems laptop-related..

Thnx
