Re: Using the vSphere API to Register a vSphere Client Plugin with VCenter 5.1 server

> I want to use "https" instead of "http" for the server url.

This is covered in the SDK-Tutorial-html doc, section "Registering your plugin package as a vCenter Server extension".

You will need something like this in your VC extension:

<server>

   <url>https://a-web-server-path/mypluginPackage.zip</url>

   <description>

      <label>My plugin</label>

      <summary>My first vSphere Client plugin</summary>

   </description>

   <company>VMware</company>

   <-- SHA1 thumbprint of the server hosting the .zip file -->

   <serverThumbprint>3D:E7:9A:85:01:A9:76:DD:AC:5D:83:1C:0E:E0:3C:F6:E6:2F:A9:97</serverThumbprint>

   <type>HTTPS</type>

   <adminEmail>your-email</adminEmail>

</server>
