I would like to run my API using dotnet run, so I can run some tests against it. However, on Azure Pipelines and AppVeyor, they don't have a developer certificate installed and I get an error when I try to start my API. Installing a developer certificate involes running:
dotnet dev-certs https --trust
However, this shows a dialogue which the user has to click and this fails the build. How can I install the developer certificate on a CI server?
You can either use your own certificate (aspnet core listenOptions.UseHttps(new X509Certificate2(...));) in your app or export the dotnet dev certificate with:
dotnet dev-certs https --export-path <path> [--password <pass>]
This generates the certificate that you need. You can trust this certificate manually with powershell as explained here:
