Thanks for reporting. We're already aware of one issue with Connect-vRAServer and vRA 8.2 - will see if this one is related /cc @Stevio54

Hello, I have been unable to recreate this issue in three different environments. It seems the issue may be in how your environment is set?

A colleague @mpuckett159 suggested checking this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41618766/powershell-invoke-webrequest-fails-with-ssl-tls-secure-channel, as this may be an issue in how Powershell is handling the protocols, you may need to change the order or try some of the other soltinos here.
