When I try

prefect auth login --key <API_KEY>

I receive

requests.exceptions.SSLError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='<http://api.prefect.io|api.prefect.io>', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: / (Caused by SSLError(SSLCertVerificationError(1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1131)')))

I don't really understand much about network but I think our proxy is getting in the way and doing its own certificate check, which fails.

Usually this is resolved by passing verify=False flag to the request but I don't see how I can do that without modifying prefect client's code locally and reinstalling it which I don't want to
