I am using webMethods.io http connector to post measurements to Cumulocity platform. Is there any secure way to post data to Cumulocity as there is no https connector available ?
Can we convert http connector to https connection to ensure the data is encrypted and remain secured?

Question related to a free trial, or to a production (customer) instance?
If I understand correctly, you’re using the “HTTP Connector”, not the “Cumulocity IoT” Connector that Stefan mentioned, correct? Although the name does not suggest, the “HTTP Connector” also supports https endpoints.
Anyway we’d recommend to use the “Cumulocity IoT” connector which gives you a lot of features to work with your Cumulocity tenant. If you need any support using it, let us know!
To be honest I dont know how secure the HTTP Connector is since I never used it or developed it. But using https should give you some security after all.
Further to our discussion above, my internal team has raised concern that the data which is in transit, webMethods.io-> c8y is not secure. As the port I am using is HTTP from webMethods.io to send the data to c8y. Hence please confirm the data that is transferred is encrypted or not.
Please refer to the attached image for the connector we are using and the url which is used to post the data.
Just repeating what @Harald_Meyer already said in the previous post. You are using the https://* address (as per your own screenshot), so it is using encrypted traffic.
