"Your link is HTTP, someone turned on the "Require HTTPS" flag in the security settings for your organization. As you're not using HTTPS you get the error message. You can update your shortcut to use HTTPS (or look at more secure ways of managing users credentials, having credentials in plain text is a security risk)."
