  1. I am able to resolve this issue by adding below code in functions.php of my theme folder.

    add_action('http_request_args', 'jkudish_http_request_args', 10, 2);
    function jkudish_http_request_args($args, $url) {
    $args['sslverify'] = false;
    return $args;
    }
    

    I hope this can help someone 🙂
