Kibana could not perform access check to Enterprise Search

hi,
I am setting up a self-managed setup (Elasticsearch, Kibana, Enterprise search) for a simple search application. Everything works fine with http. Once I enable ssl on enterprisesearch and on kibana, I get "Unable to connect", and the specific log message from kibana log is

{"service":{"node":{"roles":["background_tasks","ui"]}},"ecs":{"version":"8.4.0"},"@timestamp":"2022-12-21T01:06:56.172+00:00","message":"Could not perform access check to Enterprise Search: TypeError[ERR_INVALID_PROTOCOL]: Protocol \"https:\" not supported. Expected "http:"","log":{"level":"ERROR","logger":"plugins.enterpriseSearch"},"process":{"pid":215374},"trace":{"id":"7eebab3699db9dd62fe5fbdc14f637ce"},"transaction":{"id":"07f3ef1e7bcdefaf"}}

I looked up at common errors page and it does not have any solution for this log message..any pointers? looks like i am doing some simple mistake somewhere, but unable to fix.

thanks for the help

@Carlos_D - tagging you as I saw you had responded with solutions for a similar query sometime back.

Hey there, did you also enable ssl for Elasticsearch as well? Set up basic security for the Elastic Stack plus secured HTTPS traffic | Elasticsearch Guide [8.5] | Elastic

yes.

What do you see in the Enterprise Search logs as well as the Kibana logs?
