Prefect Community

Howcome my prefect tasks are trying to connect ot the prefect server via an insecure websocket? ws:// <@ULVA73B9P>

It seems like your Prefect tasks are attempting to connect to the server using an insecure WebSocket (`ws://`) due to a configuration issue. Here's what you might want to check:

1. *API URL Configuration*: Ensure that your Prefect server's API URL is set to use `https://` instead of `http://`. This is crucial for establishing secure WebSocket connections (`wss://`).

2. *Environment Variables*: If you're using self-hosted Prefect, make sure your environment variables are correctly set up. For example, set `PREFECT_API_URL` to a secure URL (`<https://your-prefect-server.com>`).

3. *Reverse Proxy*: If you have a reverse proxy (like Nginx or Traefik) in front of your Prefect server, ensure it's correctly configured to handle secure connections and that your `ui.api_url` points to the secure external proxy URL.

4. *SSL/TLS Configuration*: If you're using SSL/TLS, ensure your certificates are correctly configured and trusted by your system. You can set the `SSL_CERT_FILE` environment variable to point to your certificate bundle.

For more detailed setup instructions, you can refer to Prefect's documentation on <https://docs-3.prefect.io/v3/develop/settings-and-profiles|server settings> and <https://docs-3.prefect.io/v3/manage/self-host|self-hosting>.
