ATS blocking a valid https request

Let me start by saying this issue is probably something I'm doing incorrectly.... Xcode 11.4.1, Simulator is an iPhone 8 with iOS 13.4

The following error is thrown, even though I believe I've created a valid https request.

Error:

Code Block P (http://) resource load since it is insecure. Temporary exceptions can be configured via your app's Info.plist file.

Code to create URL and start task:

Code Block        let utfValue = "✓"
       let q = ""
       let location = ""
       let nearby = "true"
        let lat = String((currentLocation?.coordinate.latitude)!)
        let lng = String((currentLocation?.coordinate.longitude)!)
        rawLng = currentLocation?.coordinate.longitude as! CLLocationDegrees
        rawLat = currentLocation?.coordinate.latitude as! CLLocationDegrees
        var urlComponents = URLComponents()
       urlComponents.scheme = "https"
       urlComponents.host = "xxxxx.com"
      urlComponents.path = "/search"
        urlComponents.queryItems = [
           URLQueryItem(name:"utf8", value: utfValue),
           URLQueryItem(name:"q", value: q),
           URLQueryItem(name:"location", value: location),
           URLQueryItem(name:"nearby", value: nearby),
           URLQueryItem(name:"lat", value: lat),
           URLQueryItem(name:"lng", value: lng),
       ]
        print(urlComponents.url?.absoluteString)
        let task = URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: (urlComponents.url!)) { (data, response, error) in
           if let data = data,
        let rawWebResults = String(data: data, encoding: .utf8){
               //print("here")
           }
    }
        task.resume()

When I print the URL, it is valid and contains the https, but it seems like when the URLSession is using it, its interpreting it as http.

Thanks,
