Hello,

we are using SSL Labs Test task in our Azure pipeline and in 1/3 of cases this task failed with error message: "service is overloaded".
Is there any approach to avoid this?

Thank you in advance.

SSL lab does not work web server which is hosting multiple web sites and web services

My web server is hosting multiple website and web services; therefore, we are using dns and assign specific IP per website or webservice.
When I enter https://websitename.companydomain.com in hostname to analyze input textbox, got an error
Task Failed. Error: "Cannot read property 'length' of undefined"
