hello @Badr_Atouhlaten , welcome to the Elastic community!

how did you set up the certificate on Kibana?

what's the output of openssl s_client -showcerts -connect 127.0.0.1:443?

what version of Kibana and Filebeat are you running?

Thank you i managed to solve it with ssl.verification_mode: none

glad it is working now, but disabling the ssl verification is not the best practice in term of security
