I vaguely remember "About Wifi" somewhere but didn't think that sounded like what i need
- what capability do I need to be able to do http and https
- and where do I set it? (certificate? profile? appId?)
iPhone app failing http - what entitlement capability is needed (and where)
You don’t need to set anything special to access the network in your iOS app [1]. Apps have access to the network by default [2].
How are you HTTP requests failing? What API are you using to run those requests? And what error do you getback?
Share and Enjoy

[1] This is different for macOS apps where, if the app is sandboxed, you need to apply the com.apple.security.network.client entitlement.
[2] Although that access can be disabled by the user.
I found the answer:
- the http link included a query parameter that had a parameter with a "^" in it
- it appears iPhone network runtime handles this differently than macOS or windows
And yes, I know I should have URL encoded the entire sting, but did not expect platform differences
