@buchanae Thanks for reporting this. The API metadata for mygene.info is hosted on http://smart-api.info, and it does not support https yet. When you access mygene.info via https, the browser blocks the "unsecure" content served from smart-api.info. The workaround right now is just to use the http://mygene.info. There is a ticket for smartapi to enable its https support: https://github.com/SmartAPI/smartAPI/issues/22.
SmartAPI/smartAPI#22 is now fixed. https://mygene.info/v3/api should work now.
However with on caveat: when under https://mygene.info/v3/api page, users need to switch to "https://mygene.info/v3" in order to make test queries. This is due to the browser restriction of not allowing mixed https and http content. We will see if possible to set the default automatically
