Jaspersoft Studio App Transport Security - unable to load reports

Question

I'm trying to edit reports in Jaspersoft Studio but am being blocked with this error when attempting to load the report:

Page load failed with error: The resource could not be loaded because the App Transport Security policy requires the use of a secure connection.

My colleagues are loading reports from the same server (http) running the same version of Jaspersoft Studio without issue. I have reached out to their support with no response. It seems most other threads on this subject are not specific to Jaspersoft and recommend altering Info.plist but I don't believe Jaspersoft utilizes this file. Is there another location or setting I can alter to allow this connection?

Answer 1

Correction: There is an info.plist file for Jasperstudio. I was able to locate it and inserted this code:

<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
<dict>
  <key>NSAllowsArbitraryLoads</key>
  <true/>
</dict>

This solved the error.
