'How to disable hostname verification on Insomnia

I have only just begun using Insomnia for testing some REST calls. I got a certificate issue because the Common Name of my certificate on the server does not match the Hostname that is used to reach the server. I want to know, if there is a way I can disable hostname verification in Insomnia ?

I came across this link that mentions the flag which is to be used, but I am currently not sure how to configure Insomnia with the flag https://docs.oracle.com/middleware/11119/wls/WLACH/taskhelp/security/DisableHostNameVerification.html

At this point, I am also trying to re-generate the server cert with appropriate SAN but due to some restrictions, my host IP might change, so I am not sure if this is a solution that I can use every time I have to test some calls.

Please help if you know how we can configure Insomnia to skip hostname verification check. Thanks.

Insomnia also has the option to turn off certificate verification.

Go to “Preferences”,
Navigate down the general preferences to find and uncheck “Validate certificates.”

I was able to verify after adding SAN to the cert csr. Tag to be used in the csr for adding the SAN is :

subjectAltName = IP:<> or subjectAltName = DNS:<>

Multiple SANs can be added to the cert.

But, there is no way that I could find to disable hostname verification on Insomnia. Although if you want to skip validation of a cert altogether, then you can uncheck "Validate Certificates" option in the Preferences.
