GitHub CoPilot self-signed certificate error in Intellij

Wed, 25 Jan 2023 08:05:00 +0000

As of 2023-01-25 there has been an issue with GitHub CoPilot plugin on Intellij (and other IDEs supporting GitHub CoPilot as well) that if the machine had self-signed certificates (like in an office laptop) then it would throw following error :

Sign in failed. Reason: Request signInInitiate failed with message: self signed certificate in certificate chain, request id: 3, error code: -32603

In this post I am proposing a fix that works fine as of 2023-01-25.

During my early school days, I was part of that small group of students who were afraid to speak in front of a bigger group, got bullied, and resisted to speak against anything wrong happening with them. I didn’t even feel confident enough to take help from my parents on this matter.
