General settings include encryption and the HTTP server port number.
Enable “Use encryption” if you want to encrypt the client/server communication (recommended).
If encryption is used, external REST API calls must ignore CA verification because the certificate is self-signed. For development purposes, we recommend to disable encryption.
To change the default HTTP port (2000) used to connect to the REST API, go to and enter a number.
You can only use port numbers greater than 1024 with the exception of 3000, 8000, 8080, 8081, and the ports you have opened on the “Port” page.
