https support (self-managed App Search with SSL enabled)?

[ppf2]

I don't see any certificate path (e.g., certificate_authorities) settings available for this plugin. I have a SSL-enabled App Server instance (7.3.0) and have configured the url to https. Is https connection to an App Server not currently supported by this plugin? thx!

the app search java client doesn't seem to support this either. You can pass an https url and it will likely use the certificates in your java keystore, that lives in $JAVA_HOME/lib/security/cacerts

When using a CA that is not trusted by the default cacerts, I am also able to use javax settings to point it to the JKS truststore of App Search to get this to work:

-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=/Users/test/Elastic/AppSearch/7.3.0/app-search-7.3.0/config/appsearch_truststore.ks
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStoreType=jks
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=password
