The approach looks good overall, but I think this needs a couple of fixes before merging.
The main issue is that ca_cert_path is only wired into the Python sync path. On current main, Test Connection builds WebDAV through WebDAVConnector.build_connector(), which currently drops the field, so a private-CA setup can still fail validation even though sync is configured correctly.
There’s also now a native Go WebDAV connector, and it ignores ca_cert_path entirely. That means the same connector config behaves differently depending on whether RAGFlow is running through Python or Go. I’d expect the Go client to load the configured CA as well, while keeping the existing default transport untouched when the option isn’t set.
One smaller thing: invalid CA paths/PEM currently end up looking like authentication failures because of the broad exception handling in load_credentials(). It would be better to surface those as certificate/configuration errors.
I don’t think this needs a larger refactor the existing solution is fine in principle. Just make sure the CA setting reaches all supported construction/runtime paths and add focused coverage for them.
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe WebDAV data source now supports an optional custom CA certificate path. The UI collects the path, backend code passes it to WebDAV connectors, and Python and Go clients apply custom certificate verification when configured. ChangesWebDAV CA certificate support
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This change enables per-source custom WebDAV trust, but the configured CA path is read from the server filesystem without a demonstrated restriction to approved certificate locations, which could permit unintended file access or resource impact for users able to configure data sources. Merge readiness requires explicit owner acceptance or a confinement/authorization safeguard; a minor missing localization and validation-logging follow-up also remain.

Add an optional CA certificate path to WebDAV data source settings and pass it to the WebDAV client. Preserve default SSL verification when unset and cover both behaviors with unit tests.

Localize the new field label.
The new field uses a hard-coded English label, while the other WebDAV labels use t(...). Non-English locales will show this field in English. Add a translation key and use t(...) for the label, as already done for setting.webdavCaCertPathTip.

Log invalid CA path configuration.
The new validation branch raises ConnectorValidationError without logging. Add an error log before the raise so rejected configuration is visible in connector logs. Log the received type, not the path value.

Summary
verifyoption.Why
WebDAV servers using private or self-signed certificate authorities cannot currently be connected
without modifying the container's global certificate configuration. Self-hosted users need a way to
provide a mounted CA certificate bundle for an individual WebDAV data source.
