Looks like there is not SSL certificate installed.

I would update your python to 3.8, that will likely fix the issues you are seeing.

I am also facing same issue with Python 3.12.0. Pls advice.

raise to_exc(exc) from exc

httpcore.ConnectError: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1000)

You are using python 3.12, right? I am using 3.11, and getting the same error (with different line numbers).

We are using Windows. My suspicion is that there is a firewall issue blocking the connection.
