I want to run my collection using postman.exe when running below command I get “unable to get local issuer certificate”. What does this mean? And how can I resolve it? I don’t have much information except postman.exe throwing an error.

C:\Users\kabdul>postman login --with-api-key PMAK-
Error: unable to get local issuer certificate

Note: Intentionally, I removed the value after PMAK-

Can you confirm what it is you mean by using the postman.exe?

Have you go through the process of installing the Postman CLI?
