IONIC ios emulator not able to make http requests

Question

having an issue making a post request for ionic 5 on a ios emulator

if I do a request on an android emulator it works fine, but when I do on a IOS emulator I get this error msg

[console.log]: "POST call in error" {
   "headers": {
    "normalizedNames": {},
     "lazyUpdate": null,
     "headers": {}
   },
   "status": 0,
  "statusText": "Unknown Error",
  "url": " <my url>.json",
  "ok": false,
  "name": "HttpErrorResponse",
   "message": "Http failure response for  <my url>/access_token.json: 0 Unknown Error",
   "error": {
     "isTrusted": true
   }
 }

this is how I'm making my request, using http-client in angular

import { HttpClient, HttpParams, HttpHeaders } from '@angular/common/http';

Any help is appreciated!

Answer 1

so it turns out the endpoints I was trying to hit had an expired SSL, which is a no go on IOS. Manage to fix up the ssl and now my app works on IOS, hopefully this help someone else
