After upgrading from dfx 0.23 to 0.24.1 every call to the http_request endpoint fails with Response verification failed: Certification values not found error. This breaks our CI and makes it impossible to test our canisters locally. Is this a bug, a regression, or something else? Will this change o…

testnet.bitfinity.network is not a DFINITY run HTTP Gateway, so I don’t know how it has been implemented but it seems to not be following the same behavior. If so, how can I call the raw endpoint on the local dfx node? Can you try with ${CANISTER_ID}.raw.localhost:${DFX_WEBSERVER_PORT}?

Are you implementing the http_request endpoint yourself? In Rust or Motoko? dfx start --pocketic is now compatible with --artificial-delay and the subnet_type configuration option, and enables --enable-canister-http by default. Maybe this is the change that caused the issue. @mraszyk , is certifi…

[image] NathanosDev: is certification required by default in the PocketIC HTTP Gateway? yes, it is; to disable certification verification, the .raw. endpoints must be used

[image] ufoscout: Yes, we implement the http_request endpoint in Rust. You could consider adding certification to your http_request endpoint: Announcing the HTTP certification library for Rust - Developers / Rust - Internet Computer Developer Forum (dfinity.org) . [image] ufoscout: Is any…

[image] NathanosDev: This change doesn’t affect mainnet, it’s actually closer to mainnet behavior now than it was before. Well, this is the current behavior when the http_request endpoint is called: mainnet: it replies with the expected data dfx 0.23: it replies with the expected data dfx 0…

On mainnet you need to use the raw endpoints to skip certification, but normal endpoints require it. Now that behavior is being reflected in DFX.

Do you mean that mainnet automatically certifies the http_request endpoint?

Certification, meaning the preparation of a certificate, needs to be done by the canister code, it’s not done automatically. The verification of the certificate is done automatically by the HTTP Gateway for the http_request endpoint on mainnet, but when you use a raw domain, this verification step i…

Hi @NathanosDev , First of all, thank you so much for all the help you’ve provided. I’m still feeling quite confused about this issue. You mentioned that “preparation of a certificate needs to be done by the canister code,” and that the gateway verifies the certificate’s validity. However, our can…

Could you share the URL to your canister?

I’m having a somewhat similar issue. Would anyone here know how to resolve this issue I posted in this thread
