Fetch() for http works on Windows but not on MacOS. Sample code.

This works on Windows but not on MacOS

fetch('http://gde.cz').then(function (response) {
	return response.text();
}).then(function (html) {
	console.log(html);
}).catch(function (err) {
	console.warn('Something went wrong.', err);
});

This works on both

fetch('https://gde.cz').then(function (response) {
	return response.text();
}).then(function (html) {
	console.log(html);
}).catch(function (err) {
	console.warn('Something went wrong.', err);
});

Why is that? I want to use it only for localhost. But with this, I would need to do something very complicated about certificates.

Use 127.0.0.1 instead; that should work.

Applications on macOS are subject to App Transport Security and both XD and Photoshop enforce this. This means that UXP plugins are subject to the same restrictions.

Please add this into documentation if it is not there. :slight_smile:

@kerrishotts Does this also apply to fetch calls to urls with self-signed certificates?
Is there any way around making fetch calls to either of these scenarios (http or https with self-sign certs)?
