# DATEV URL: HTTPS and HTTP Configuration Guide

## This guide explains how to avoid common mistakes with HTTP and HTTPS endpoints in DATEV.

If your Memtime app shows this error, you can follow the steps below:

*"The HTTPS certificate is invalid.*  
*http://srv0000example:54852/datev/api/iam/v1/Users/me seems to be working.*   
*You can use this URL instead."

### 1. For IT partner-controlled Terminal Servers (not DATEVasp)

#### Use the correct URL format

The most important rule:

1. **HTTPS always uses port 54852**
2. **HTTP always uses port 54854**

Please do not mix them.

#### Option 1: HTTPS (with "S")

Use this format:

```
https://srv0000example:54852/datev/api/iam/v1/Users/me
```

#### ⚠️ HTTPS always uses port 54852. ⚠️

**Rules:**

1. Must start with "**https://**" - **with an "S"**
2. Must use port **54852**
3. If you use a different port, it will not work

#### Option 2: HTTP (without "S")

Use this format:

```
http://srv0000example:54854/datev/api/iam/v1/Users/me
```

#### ⚠️ HTTP  always uses port 54854. ⚠️

**Rules:**

1. Must start with "**http://**" - **without an "S"**
2. Must use port **54854**
3. If you use a different port, it will not work

### 2\. For DATEV-managed terminal servers (DATEVasp)

If DATEV is hosted via a **DATEVasp server**, the address always remains:

```
http://localhost:58454
```

#### ⚠️ HTTP  always uses port 54854. ⚠️

### 3. Run the DATEV-API connection check

If you are sure that you've used the correct URL, and that the endpoints you used in it are also correct, please make sure to do the following DATEV-API Connection Check:
