Add Certificate (OSX)

To be access your visual through PowerBI you need to add a trusted certificate for localhost. This will allow PowerBI to load the visual assets in your browser without a security warning.


Step 1

Run the following command to open the certificate and start the process.

pbiviz --install-cert

If this command fails for some reason find pbiviz in your global node modules folder and open the certificate manually.


Step 2

  • If the lock (top left corner) is locked click it to unlock
  • Enter "localhost" in the search box (top right corner)
  • Double click on the new certificate

Step 3

  • Select Always Trust
  • Close the window

Step 4

  • Enter your username / password
  • Click Update Settings

Step 5

Close all open browsers

Once this is done your browser will trust this certificate for connections to localhost which will allow you to serve visuals. You will need to close all open web browsers before changes will take effect. If this doesn't work try restarting your computer.
