Estimated time
15-20 minutes
Exact files to change
python/README.md (the existing one-line note about ONTAP_VERIFY_SSL)
Expected outcome
Replace the single-line mention with a proper subsection that documents:
- The default behavior (
verify_ssl=False for self-signed certificates).
- How to enable verification via
ONTAP_VERIFY_SSL=true.
- How to point at a custom CA bundle via
REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE, with a
working code block.
Cross-link to docs/troubleshooting.md § SSL / TLS errors.
How to test
Render the README on GitHub and verify the new subsection appears with
all three knobs explained, includes a code block, and the anchor link to
the troubleshooting page resolves. Keep the section under 25 lines.
ONTAP concepts touched
None.
Hints / gotchas
The relevant code is in python/ontap_client.py (the verify_ssl
constructor parameter and the warning suppression near the top). No
code change needed in this issue — docs only.
