This article describes the steps that need to be followed so that the Studio runs over a secure connection via HTTPS. 

  1. Go to Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager. 
  2. Select the Blueriq site and from the context menu, open the Bindings... dialog. 
  3. Add a new binding with type "HTTPS" and select the certificate you want to use.
  4. Click on "View" to check the "Issued to" property of the certificate. For this example, the IIS Express Development Certificate was used. In a real situation, the "Issued To" field should be the host of your Blueriq deployment instead of localhost. 
  5. To use HTTPS, go to the "Issued to" host from step 4, using the https scheme. For example : https://issued-to-domain.com/ 
  6. When the installer is used for installation, the reverse proxy is configured to pass the right http headers for the application to work. Otherwise please configure the headers in the reverse proxy : Using a reverse proxy server.

Please note that the certificate that is installed in IIS must also be installed on the Server which is running the ExchangeService, otherwise the ExchangeService is not able to establish a secure connection to retrieve the content.
