The resource could not be loaded because the App Transport Security policy requires the use of a secure connection

Question

I am facing the Problem when I have updated my Xcode to 7.0 or iOS 9.0. Somehow it started giving me the Titled error

\"The resource could not be load

Answer 1

If you are using Xcode 8.0 and swift 3.0 or 2.2

Answer 2

In Swift 4 You can use

->Go Info.plist

-> Click plus of Information properties list

->Add App Transport Security Settings as dictionary

-> Click Plus icon App Transport Security Settings

-> Add Allow Arbitrary Loads set YES

Bellow image look like

Answer 3

You just need to use HTTPS and not HTTP in your URL and it will work

Answer 4

If you are using Xcode 8.0 to 8.3.3 and swift 2.2 to 3.0

In my case need to change in URL http:// to https:// (if not working then try)

Add an App Transport Security Setting: Dictionary.
Add a NSAppTransportSecurity: Dictionary.
Add a NSExceptionDomains: Dictionary.
Add a yourdomain.com: Dictionary.  (Ex: stackoverflow.com)

Add Subkey named " NSIncludesSubdomains" as Boolean: YES
Add Subkey named " NSExceptionAllowsInsecureHTTPLoads" as Boolean: YES

Answer 5

If you use firebase, it will add NSAllowsArbitraryLoadsInWebContent = true in the NSAppTransportSecurity section, and NSAllowsArbitraryLoads = true will not work

Answer 6

I have solved it with adding some key in info.plist. The steps I followed are:

1. Opened my Project target's info.plist file

2. Added a Key called NSAppTransportSecurity as a Dictionary.

3. Added a Subkey called NSAllowsArbitraryLoads as Boolean and set its value to YES as like following image.

Clean the Project and Now Everything is Running fine as like before.

EDIT: OR In source code of info.plist file we can add that:

<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
    <dict>
        <key>NSAllowsArbitraryLoads</key>
        <true/>
        <key>NSExceptionDomains</key>
        <dict>
            <key>yourdomain.com</key>
            <dict>
                <key>NSIncludesSubdomains</key>
                <true/>
                <key>NSThirdPartyExceptionRequiresForwardSecrecy</key>
                <false/>
            </dict>
       </dict>
  </dict>
