your info plist hierarchy for transport should be like this

Personify

wait i will check. – Mend

Instead of this, can you open any url in webview as a test case? If you dont have webview then take a temp webview and try any random url. – Personify

hi I tried with webview but again shows same ATS error. please give me source code of info.plist for hierarchy – Mend

Hey @Personify I fixed this is by doing Project file->info->Custom iOS Target Properties->Add ATS setting with Allow Arbitrary enable instead of adding directly in info.plist – Mend

Thank you so much. – Mend

Answer 2

NSAppTransportSecurity provides the network layer security and only allow http secured urls.

There are 2 ways to solve this:

Case 1:

In your code you are using an unsecure url with http:// replace it with https://, then it will work.

Case 2:

If you don't have ssl enabled url then, allow your url in Exception Domains as:

There is no issue with http:// I tried this URL -> http://linux-training.be/linuxfun.pdf and it works prfect. – Personify
