Hey there, having an issue with the http request node. I’ve toggled on headers and added a residential proxy to ensure that web scraping works for the list of sites I have in my fields (set) node. However I’m still getting an SSL error (SSL Issue: consider using the ‘Ignore SSL issues’ option [item 0] even after toggling on ‘Ignore SSL issues’. The complete workflow is below:
My workflow:

Hey @jamieoleary ,
Checking your node i see you are using a proxy.
Can you try the following
Proxy server issue - Your Bright Data proxy might be temporarily unavailable. Try testing without the proxy first:
- Temporarily remove the proxy URL from the “Proxy” field
- Test a simple request to see if it works
- If it works without proxy, the issue is with your proxy configuration/availability
URL format issue - Make sure your sanitizedUrl field contains valid URLs with proper protocol (https://)
Try a different approach - Test with a simple, known URL first:
- Replace
{{ $json.sanitizedUrl }} temporarily with a direct URL like https://httpbin.org/get
- See if the basic request works
Let me know what you find and what works
