Hi,

I have written a powershell script for an API call to pull list of certification campaign.

The problem is, when try to run this script from windows server in my environment, I’m receiving attached error. I’m able to see the connection establishment is having a problem.

Could someone suggest an idea to fix this.

Please check with your networking team. The server seems to be blocking Sailpoint IDN URL connectivity.

can you try just this command on powershell console of the machine from which you’re getting error -

Invoke-WebRequest ‘Your IDN URL’

and see if it works and opens your website.

If yes, then there might be an issue in you cmdlet/script.

I would recommend to utilise SDK built by @colin_mckibben. It’s easy and amazing to use.
