React Native XMLHttpRequest request fails if ssl (https) certificate is not valid

Question

When i am doing XMLHttpRequest to https server with not valid certificate React Native throws exception \"The operation couldn’t be completed. (NSURLErrorDomain error -1202.)\"<

Answer 1

As far as I can tell you can't do this in web XHR either, so React Native won't expose it. I've had a check through the source code which seems to confirm this.
