SSL Certificate verify fails

[VeloSteve]

Apologies if this is just a short-term glitch on Garmin's side, but in case there is something that needs fixing, here's my report.

I use the exporter almost daily, and it has never failed in over two months. Today it seems to have a problem with SSL verification. Things I tried:

• Account login from a browser still works.
• This happens on my wife's Garmin account as well.
• Fetched the latest version (mine was from March). No change.

A clip from the console window is below:

I just tried on macOS with Python 2.7.17 and Python 3.7.7 and it still works for both versions.

Let's hope it's a glitch for you and it works again now, otherwise you could verify if you're on the latest 2.7.x version? To my knowledge it is 2.7.18.

I was on Python 2.7.11. Updating to 2.7.18 fixed it.

It seems strange that it only failed today, but I can't complain.

Thank you!
