@Marvin How do I configure a SSL certificate in my Prefect server so I can run it using a friendly hostname in Kubernetes?

Configuring an SSL certificate for your Prefect server on Kubernetes involves a couple of general steps, although specifics will vary depending on your Kubernetes setup and how you handle certificates (e.g., manual, Let's Encrypt, cert-manager, etc.). 1. Obtain a SSL Certificate: You'll need a valid SSL certificate for your friendly hostname. This might come from a certificate authority (CA) or could be self-signed if for internal use. 2. Set up Ingress with SSL: Integrate your SSL certificate with Kubernetes Ingress or another resource responsible for handling external access to your Prefect server. Usually, you configure TLS settings within the Ingress resource to refer to the Kubernetes Secret that contains your SSL certificate and key. 3. Environment Variables for SSL: If your certificate is not part of your system bundle, you can disable certificate verification by setting the
PREFECT_API_TLS_INSECURE_SKIP_VERIFY
to
True
. However, this is insecure and suggested only for testing. 4. Proxies: If you're behind a proxy, set
HTTPS_PROXY
and
SSL_CERT_FILE
in your environment. 5. Helm Chart for Kubernetes: When hosting on Kubernetes, you can use the
prefect-server
Helm chart to help configure your deployment, including any necessary environment variables. Please note that the queries returned general information and did not provide highly detailed steps for Kubernetes or specifics on configuring the Ingress with SSL/TLS. If you're using a Helm chart for your deployment, check its documentation for the values you need to set for SSL/TLS configuration. Refer to Prefect Installation Docs for general information, and consider consulting Kubernetes documentation or the Helm chart you are using for specifics on setting up SSL with Ingress. If you require further assistance, please provide more details about your current Kubernetes setup, your ingress controller, and how you manage SSL certificates, and I'll attempt to provide a more tailored response.
