Hello,

In my kibana setup I've secured using elastic ca certs. Chrome, firefox don't like them. Chrome refuses to allow login to my app.

I would like to know how to generate certificate from let's encrypt using the car generated.

I tried to get my answer on the web but just couldn't find it.

Please help.
