External SSL for inter-node communication

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi, I am on elasticsearch-7.13, and for rules section I am getting message " You must enable Transport Layer Security between Elasticsearch and kibana".

I've enabled SSL with let'sencrypt certificate on a nginx reverse proxy. I've set elasticsearch.hosts: ["https://elasticsearch.xyz.com"].

How do I signal elastic search and kibana that tls is enabled?

You cannot.

Kibana Alerting relies on functionality within Elasticsearch that is only enabled when you run on HTTPS inside Elasticsearch. There is currently not way to bypass that requirement with a proxy.
