<p>I'm trying to set up an SSL certificate for Kong 2.7 installed in Kubernetes but I am not getting this to work as expected. I tried to follow this <a href="https://support.konghq.com/support/s/article/How-to-setup-Kong-to-serve-an-SSL-certificate-for-API-requests" rel="nofollow noreferrer">guide</a>. Even looking for additional help in <a href="https://discuss.konghq.com/t/adding-certificate-does-not-create-sni/2497" rel="nofollow noreferrer">discussion</a> .</p>
<pre><code>curl -X POST http://kong-admin:8001/certificates -F &quot;cert=kong.lan.pem&quot; -F &quot;key=kong.lan.key&quot; -F &quot;snis[0]=mydomain.net&quot;
</code></pre>
<p>This is my response:</p>
<pre><code>{
  &quot;fields&quot;: {

<p>Kong deployed with helm chart:</p>
<pre><code>$ helm repo add kong https://charts.konghq.com
$ helm repo update

$ helm install kong/kong --generate-name --set ingressController.enabled=true --set admin.enabled=True --set admin.http.enabled=True --set ingress.enabled=True --set proxy.ingress.enabled=True --set admin.type=LoadBalancer --set proxy.type=LoadBalancer
</code></pre>
<p>Does any of you know how to make this working or how to add tls.crt and tls.key into Kong Deployment?</p>
