var options = {
    url: 'https://toscrape.com',
    ca: fs.readFileSync("/path/to/zyte-ca.crt"),
    requestCert: true,
    rejectUnauthorized: true
};

function callback(error, response, body) {
    if (!error && response.statusCode == 200) {
        console.log(response.headers);
        console.log(body);
