Question
Where can I find Client Certificate so as to be able to connect to Managed Postgre Instance using Pgadmin
- Posted on April 4, 2020
- DigitalOcean Managed PostgreSQL Database
Asked by gauravmjoshi
Hi, I am completely new to cloud server and to PostgreSQL. I would like to setup a SSL Connection with PostgreSQL managed database on Digital Ocean. I downloaded the CA certificate. However, when I try to use the CA certificate to connect to the instance externally using Pgadmin, it also asks for a CA key. I am not aware as to where to find this key. Please support or kindly explain, if I have understood something wrongly in this.
