When I try to start an URL Request to my website from watchOS 2 the request fail and i get this message :

Application Transport Security has blocked a cleartext HTTP (http://) resource load since it is insecure. Temporary exceptions can be configured via your app's Info.plist file.

what can i do ? All i've found in the doc is :

App Transport Security

App Transport Security (ATS) lets an app add a declaration to its

Info.plist

file that specifies the domains with which it needs secure communication. ATS prevents accidental disclosure, provides secure default behavior, and is easy to adopt. You should adopt ATS as soon as possible, regardless of whether you’re creating a new app or updating an existing one.

If you’re developing a new app, you should use HTTPS exclusively. If you have an existing app, you should use HTTPS as much as you can right now, and create a plan for migrating the rest of your app as soon as possible.

But nothing about the name of the key in Info.plist..

I'm using wkwebview to refer to a direct local http IP address (e.g. http://192.168.1.80) instead of a domain name.
This is done for development purposes only and not for official or public release.
I'm seeing an error:

domain = NSURLErrorDomain, code = -1202

Adding the following code to my Info.list file does not solve the problem.

<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
<dict>
     <key>NSAllowsArbitraryLoads</key><true/>
</dict>

I read here that the order of things may cause problems.
In my case, I don't have a pre-build or post-build scripts.

I'm debugging iOS14 with xcode 13.1 on MacOS 12.0.1

How can I refer to a direct IP address?

Thanks

I recommend that you start a new thread for this. Please tag it with WebKit and Security so that I see it. And feel free to reference any bits of this thread that you think are relevant.
