Connection to api.pushbullet.com fails about pushbullet-esp8266

[HeinvdW]

Hi
api.pushbullet.com:443 is refused
https://api.pushbullet.com returns the expected answer:

cat	"(=^.^=)"
happy_to_see_you	true
message	"Welcome to the Pushbullet API!"

So I expect the connection setup should be different than:
if (!client.connect(host,httpsPort)) {
Serial.println("connection failed");
return;
}

I have found the solution elsewhere in GitHub:
Just add
client.setInsecure();
in the line below
WiFiClientSecure client;

Resulting in:
WiFiClientSecure client;
client.setInsecure();

Found Prob. That was not Told The Arduino IDE 2.0.4 Dose Not Work, The 2.1.1 Works 7-7-2023

Have exactly same problem. The host and port are as follows:

const char* host = "api.pushbullet.com";
const int httpsPort = 443;

It fails at:

if (!client.connect(host, httpsPort)) {
Serial.println("connection failed");
return;
}

and my console says:

03:46:06.820 -> WiFi connected
03:46:06.820 -> IP address:
03:46:06.820 -> 192.168.50.97
03:46:06.867 -> connecting to api.pushbullet.com
03:46:07.664 -> connection failed

Would be great if someone could give a hint :)

also have the same problem

I have the same problem. But I guess no one cares.

you have to varify by using thingspeak's fingerprint

I have the connection problem, too. Also tried to verify the actual fingerprint which I read out of the browsers certificate and via grc.com.
Connection failed and certificate does not match :-(

Hope, anyone has an idea or can support me.

if(!pb.openConnection()) { Serial.println("Failed to connect to pushbullet.com"); //return; } // Use web browser to view and copy // SHA1 fingerprint of the certificate const char* fingerprint = "FA C0 BE 4E 64 B8 80 C7 B7 EC B6 D9 01 FF 61 0D AC 92 F5 A6"; //got it using https://www.grc.com/fingerprints.htm if (client.verify(fingerprint, "api.pushbullet.com")) { Serial.println("certificate matches"); } else { Serial.println("certificate doesn't match"); } if (!pb.checkConnection()) { Serial.println("Failed to connect to pushbullet.com"); return; }

Fails for me too. The current fingerprint should be: C1 72 5A 7A 6C AE BC CD 0A 57 8E 3A DA 39 C8 47 26 36 C9 77. But this didn't work for me...

Worked with Arduino 1.8.18 after adding " client.setInsecure();"
