# Accept Certificate Authority

In the current release of <code class="expression">space.vars.product\_name</code> , a few services are configured with self-signed certificate. You must trust the certificate by accepting the self-signed certificate for proper operation of these services.

Following services require you to trust the certificate:

1. Image Library Service - You need to trust the certificate before you can upload any Images using <code class="expression">space.vars.product\_name</code> UI or API.
   1. When using the OpenStack CLI, you can use `--insecure` option to upload images to the Image Library Service without trusting the certificate.
2. Kubernetes Service - You need to trust the cluster endpoint certificate for each Kubernetes cluster that you create, before you can view any cluster specific data in the <code class="expression">space.vars.product\_name</code> UI.

To accept the certificate:

1. Click on the link in the UI where you see a notification that says "Action Required: Trust Certificate"
2. The link will open in a new tab. Expand on the "Advance" option in the tab and proceed to click on the link to trust the certificate.
3. Note that in some cases you may need to change the security settings for your browser before you can trust the certificate.
