What are the steps to activate HTTPS in Superset while running it on a local server?

edit

Generate SSL certificate: You can obtain a SSL certificate from a trusted certificate authority (CA) or generate a self-signed certificate using OpenSSL or any other tool.

Update Superset configuration: Navigate to superset/config and edit the superset_config.py file. Set the following parameters:

a. ENABLEPROXYFIX = True

b. PREFERREDURLSCHEME = 'https'

c. WEBDRIVER_BASEURL = 'https://localhost:8989/' (Replace localhost with your server domain name)

Update Nginx configuration: If you are using Nginx as a reverse proxy for your local server, you need to update Nginx configuration. Navigate to /etc/nginx/sites-available/ and edit the default file. Add the following lines:

server {

listen 80;

server_name localhost; (Replace localhost with your server domain name)

return 301 https://$host$request_uri;

}

server {

listen 443 ssl;

server_name localhost; (Replace localhost with your server domain name)

sslcertificate /path/to/certfile;

sslcertificatekey /path/to/key_file;

location / {

proxy_pass http://localhost:8989;

proxy_set_header Host $host;

proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;

proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;

proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;

proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;

proxy_redirect off;

}

}

Restart Nginx: Run the following command to restart Nginx and apply the changes:

sudo systemctl restart nginx

Access Superset: Navigate to https://localhost and you should be able to access Superset over HTTPS.
