Why do I receive a certificate error while connecting to Spark labs?

When you try to establish a connection with Spark labs, "Certificate error" is displayed.

Your watsonx.data endpoint does not have a secure SSL certificate that is installed in the machine.

To resolve this, you can configure the settings to disable SSL verification.

1. Open Settings from Visual Studio Code.
2. Search for Verify SSL and disble the feature.
3. Refresh Spark labs extension by clicking the Refresh icon from the left navigation pane and try reconnecting.
