Not sure if related or this will help you @haf

The way I do this at the moment is something like:

use dangerousHttpHandler =
    new HttpClientHandler(
        // check:
        // https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/issues/24774
        // https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/issues/19709
        ServerCertificateCustomValidationCallback = HttpClientHandler.DangerousAcceptAnyServerCertificateValidator)

let dangerousHttpClient = new HttpClient (dangerousHttpHandler)

let createDangerousRequest (method: HttpMethod) (url: string) =
    new Uri (url)
    |> Request.createWithClient dangerousHttpClient method

let request =
    "https://localhost" // self-signed
    |> createDangerousRequest Get

There could be more functions baked into Http.Fs to make it less cumbersome but the API surface is flexible enough.
