How to write the URL of WeChat mini program? How to set the URL address of WeChat mini program?

Q: Does the external URL address for initiating requests in WeChat Mini Program development have to be https?

Answer: The request initiated by the WeChat Mini Program must be an https request.

1. The reasons are as follows:
In order to protect the security of mini-program applications, WeChat's official requirements document requires that each WeChat mini-program must set up a communication domain name in advance and conduct network communication through HTTPS requests. Domain names and protocols that do not meet the requirements cannot be requested.
Therefore, developers should first prepare a domain name with a configured HTTPS certificate.
2. Applicable fields:
Once launched, mini programs sparked heated discussions in the industry, with all kinds of demos and guides dominating the screen overnight. However, not all services are suitable for mini programs. Among them, services that are used less frequently but are relatively important are very suitable for joining the WeChat mini-program application team, such as: education, medical care, housekeeping, job recruitment, second-hand trading, travel, ticketing, etc. Users will never think of them again after using them once or twice a year. Solving them through WeChat mini-programs is more efficient and convenient than guiding users to download them through native methods.
In addition, start-ups and individual developers can also test MVP products through mini-programs. WeChat has natural communication and customer acquisition capabilities. Native applications are not only complex to develop, but also have extremely high promotion and customer acquisition costs, which hinder product exploration and rapid trial and error.

A: Yes, but you can use a third party one. If you sign it yourself, you cannot communicate with mini-programs. You need a formal SSL. You can use the free one on mousenat and ask them to forward it to you. Otherwise you will need a domain name and SSL certification, which is quite troublesome.
