Pearl Mini User Guide Configure HTTPS
Custom applications that use the Pearl device HTTP API should continue to work if you configure the
Pearl device for HTTPS.
A default, self-signed certificate from Epiphan Video comes preloaded on the Pearl device. You can upload and
delete your own certificate and private key. However, you cannot delete the default self-signed certificate that
comes preloaded on the Pearl device.
If you upload your own self-signed certificate and private key, ensure they're PEM encoded. Certificates can
either include the private key or be separate files.
If you attempt to access the web-based Admin panel using a web browser and the required security certificate
isn't found in the list of certificates loaded on the Pearl device, a warning message appears stating that the
device isn't trusted. You can choose whether to proceed and connect to the Pearl device's web-based Admin
panel without the security certificate authentication or cancel the connection.
If the Epiphan Video self-signed certificate is selected, your web browser may warn of an untrusted
certificate when you try to access Pearl's web-based Admin panel. You can dismiss the warning and
continue to the Admin panel for your device.
