HTTPS x509 Bundle Example

This example shows how to use the ESP certificate bundle utility to embed a bundle of x509 certificates and use them to establish a simple HTTPS connection over a secure connection. The path of the certificates are specified using menuconfig.

See the README.md file in the upper level 'examples' directory for more information about examples.

Example workflow

  • ESP TLS is initialized with the certificate bundle option enabled.
  • The application loops through the given URLs, establishing a secure TLS connection to all of them, verifying the server certificate included.

Configure the project

  • Open the project configuration menu (idf.py menuconfig)
  • Configure Wi-Fi or Ethernet under "Example Connection Configuration" menu. See "Establishing Wi-Fi or Ethernet Connection" section in examples/protocols/README.md for more details.
  • If using a different folder than certs for storing certificates then update Custom Certificate Bundle Path under Component config - mbedTLS - Certificate Bundle

Build and Flash

Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:

idf.py -p PORT flash monitor

(To exit the serial monitor, type Ctrl-].)

See the Getting Started Guide for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.
