Error when Add GeoJSON protocol layer in QGIS

Question

I tried to add these GeoJSON files to QGIS (2.18.9 & 2.14.15) with Add a vector layer by Protocol, GeoJSON with GUI OR Python Console:

But I get always this error: Data source not valid

What's going wrong with QGIS?

When I add the file downloaded, it's working.

Are you trying to add the GeoJSON layers via the interface or the Python Console? For QGIS 2.18.2, I can confirm it works when adding them through the interface as you have shown in your image, — Joseph, Commented Jun 2, 2017 at 12:17
Works for me too. Are you behind a proxy? Can you download the files and add them locally from disk? — AndreJ, Commented Jun 2, 2017 at 12:47
Yes, from the disk it works but i would like to use the protocol way to get alvays the updated version. It doesn't work for me in 2.14 and 2.18. Maybe i m behind a proxy.....checking on proxyornot.com..... I m not behind a proxy. — jlSta, Commented Jun 2, 2017 at 13:17

I had the same issue. After some troubleshooting, found out that it will work if I change our url from https to http

Ok, it works for the second link. But if the service is only https like the first one, it's not a complete solution? But thank you

Maybe, we should add the certificate to qgis?

On NextGIS QGIS under Mac OS X the both URLs work fine. This version of NextGIS QGIS based on QGIS 2.14 LTS.
