Please consider to backport the bug fix to 4.5.z because the URL correct validation is important, and users can easily get wrong, and have a bad user experience (I had no chance to know that the API URL must include "https://" if I didn't have an example recorded)
depends on https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1850562 to be marked as verified to move this one forward
Tested on OCP-4.5.16/CNV-2.4 Not adding https:// to the RHV URL - connection successful & VMs are listed. There is no warning on that https:// is missing. @Filip is this the expected behavior, or maybe a later OCP version should be tested here?
Verified on latest 4.5.z, from Oct 30 2020. https:// appear inside the URL bar, even before typing the URL. If I type URL with no https:// I get a red warning right below this field. The VMs are listed though, even if the URL does not start with https://
