So I am getting the following error
ssl.SSLCertVerificationError: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:997)
When I am trying to access the dataverse.
I searched online and found that the following worked for 99% of the people either
Just browse to Applications/Python 3.10 and double-click Install Certificates.command
or
pip3 install --upgrade certifi
I have tried both of them but I am still getting this error.
I have macOS Monterey version 12.6
This the full error I am getting

I'll be grateful if anyone can let me know the fix for this error.
