I’m able to push files via a PUT request in POSTMAN and python requests, but haven’t been successful with an ESP32 device. It’s unclear what port is being used by POSTMAN and python requests. Also it is unclear if the error has to do with trying to establish a connection without a cert or private key. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
A blog post shows to use AWS with a similar device in the link below requires adding in the certificates, but not sure how to do this with DO or if it is really required.

Hello,
Just came across this answer and decided to write some general guidelines for anyone who comes across this in the future despite the old question.
To troubleshoot issues with your ESP32 device, you may want to consider checking the following:
-
Port: Typically, HTTPS (HTTP over SSL/TLS) uses port 443, whereas unsecured HTTP uses port 80. Make sure you’re using the correct port for the connection.
-
Certificates: SSL/TLS certificates are commonly needed for HTTPS connections. You can obtain a certificate for your domain and add it to your DigitalOcean server. A convenient option is using a free certificate from Let’s Encrypt.
-
Consult the DigitalOcean Spaces API documentation to understand the correct way of making requests: DigitalOcean Spaces API Documentation.
For your ESP32 device, you should consult the device’s documentation or community forums for specific instructions regarding SSL/TLS certificate implementation and using HTTPS requests. I hope this helps! Let me know if you need further assistance.
Hope that this helps!
