Clarify HTTPS note in "Connecting to the Internet with Raspberry Pi Pico W" #264

Open mrichardson23 opened 2 years ago

In Connecting to the Internet with Raspberry Pi Pico W section 3.8.2. (HTTP with urequests) the note "HTTPS works, but you should be aware that SSL verification is currently disabled." was a bit confusing to me at first and I think could be clarified. Suggesting something like "While you can connect to servers via HTTPS, you should be aware that SSL certificate verification is currently disabled."

There's a (slim?) chance that SSL certificate verification might be available in MicroPython before the next release of the Pico documentation PDFs? :shrug: https://github.com/micropython/micropython/pull/8854

Hi, if it is true what you are saying then how API endpoint of Thingspeak works fine with urequests module in pico w

The Pico isn't verifying the certificate that the API is passing it.

Is there any way to integrate the pico w with a backend server built on a local host (railway.com) with HTTPS protocol to send data ?

This sounds like a question better asked on the forums.
