The interceptor can terminate TLS for incoming connections. All TLS settings are configured via Helm values and environment variables.

Enable TLS termination

Enable TLS on the interceptor proxy:

helm upgrade http-add-on kedacore/keda-add-ons-http \
  --namespace keda \
  --set interceptor.tls.enabled=true \
  --set interceptor.tls.certSecret=<your-tls-secret>

The interceptor loads TLS certificates from a Kubernetes Secret mounted at /certs. The Secret must contain tls.crt and tls.key entries.

SNI-based certificate selection

The interceptor supports SNI-based certificate selection when multiple certificate/key pairs are loaded via the KEDA_HTTP_PROXY_TLS_CERT_STORE_PATHS environment variable. Set this to a comma-separated list of paths containing additional certificate/key pairs.
