Getting SSL certificate error on blsAPI()

[yonifan]

Running this code, I get the following error:
`payload <- list('seriesid'=c("CUUR0000SA0"),'startyear'='2023', 'endyear'='2024') >
response <- blsAPI(payload,2)

Error in curl::curl_fetch_memory(url, handle = handle) : SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not OK: [api.bls.gov] server certificate verification failed. CAfile: none CRLfile: none`

This used to work for me. Probably a server side thing. But would still appreciate a mitigation on the SSL certificate error calling curl.
Maybe the error should be caught, offering a solution to accept the certificate.

Thank you
