Using Django Deployment
1

we want to test api which gets an api call from azure gateway in development server (note:not in production server api is not deployed yet),so

  1. How can I add an SSL certificate to my development server?
  2. What steps should I take to allow Azure to access my API hosted on the development server?

The easiest way to do this, is by creating a ngrok tunnel to your machine.
It’s pretty straight forward, you first install ngrok.
Then from your machine you just need to tell ngrok which port it should forward connections:
ngrok http 8000

This will create a domain name, already encrypted with https, that you can use as the address for your API.

Oh, and don’t forget: this don’t replaces a correct deployment, it should only be used for development purposes.
