Possible cause

Incorrect or missing HTTPS certificate.

Solution

The HTTPS certificate used by the BLOB store must be valid in your browser. Check the error and make sure to get the appropriate certificates.

1. Go the Process Mining portal and press F12 to open the Developer tools.

Check the Console and Network tabs for the ERR: CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID error. This indicates an error with the trust of the HTTPS certificate. See the illustration below for an example.
