I would like to run my API using dotnet run, so I can run some tests against it. However, on Azure Pipelines and AppVeyor, they don't have a developer certificate installed and I get an error when I try to start my API. Installing a developer certificate involes running:
dotnet dev-certs https --trust
However, this shows a dialogue which the user has to click and this fails the build. How can I install the developer certificate on a CI server?

The dotnet dev-certs command manages a self-signed certificate to enable HTTPS use in local web app development. Its main functions are: Generating a certificate for use with HTTPS endpoints during development. Trusting the generated certificate on the local machine.
Can I configure my app to require a certificate only on certain paths? This isn't possible. Remember the certificate exchange is done at the start of the HTTPS conversation, it's done by the server before the first request is received on that connection so it's not possible to scope based on any request fields.
When we create a web application with Visual Studio, we have an option to configure our application for HTTPS. When we create the application using CLI, by default, the web application configures for HTTPS. Using the following command, we can turn off HTTPS.
You can either use your own certificate (aspnet core listenOptions.UseHttps (new X509Certificate2 (...));) in your app or export the dotnet dev certificate with: dotnet dev-certs https --export-path <path> [--password <pass>] This generates the certificate that you need. You can trust this certificate manually with powershell as explained here:
