[Scott_CC]

Hello

Good day to you.

I use same code success in one PC but fail on a new PC. I don't understand how to use certificate_path. some topic said can fix by specify cert path. I try to download dashboard.meraki.com website certificate, but still not work.

With  certificate_path or not, I got same below error.

May you please advise how to fix?

Thank you.

meraki 1.46.0 + Python 3.12.2

dashboard = meraki.DashboardAPI(api_key=API_KEY_CN, base_url=base_url_CN, certificate_path=cert)

print(dashboard.organizations.getOrganizations())

Have you checked it with the Meraki support?

That looks like a local issue with your Python install regarding SSL, Support won't assist here. A quick Google of the error took me here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52805115/certificate-verify-failed-unable-to-get-local-issuer-ce...

Most platforms offer Python built-in (or platform-supplied) trusted root certificates - so you don't usually need to specify " certificate_path=cert".  Try taking it out and see if that resolves your issue.

Otherwise look at the "cert" variable to see where it is located, and copy that file from the old machine to the new machine.
