//This is dangerous, and should only be done temporarily until a proper certificate bundle can be installed
//curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, false); // Turns off verification of the SSL certificate.
//curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false); // Turns off verification of the SSL certificate.
$response = curl_exec($ch); //Execute the API Call
if (!$response) {
