Elasticsearch export ssl certificate

[alessandro_vale]

Hello everybody. I'm trying to export my user session data to elasticsearch with the searchguard plugin installed on it.

I've configured the export options in the dynatrace SaaS setting panel. I've also of course added the authentication credential for elasticsearch but I still get the following error:

Unable to find valid certification path to requested target.

Now.. I think the problem can be that I'm using a self-signed SSL certificate for the elastic authentication. Am I guessing right? If yes, there is the possibility to avoid the certificate verification?

Thank you!

I think you are right. Dynatrace is not able to push data to such url. Maybe use lets encrypt certificate. It's free and should be fine.

Yes, the setup requires a secure certificate from a trusted SSL certificate authority and according to some description on the Web it should be accepted as a valid certificate by the functionality exporting the data.
