Prometheus and Grafana Server from http to https

[Amarnath Jena]

Hello everyone,

I am using Ubuntu 18.04 Server in which i have installed prometheus and grafana working fine on http using specific port. I have used letsencrypt for ssl certificate to move from http to https on both prometheus and grafana. Successfully installed the certificate but issue arises that the web-interface for both prometheus and grafana is not accessable on https on specific port. How i can move both prometheus and grafana from http to https on specific port. kindly help to resolve this.

Http for prometheus= x.x.x.x:12345

http for grafana= x.x.x.x:3000

How we can same redirect them to https with same port.

Prometheus doesn't (yet) support HTTPS as a server - only as a client, i.e. when scraping.  You need to run it behind a reverse proxy like Apache.

I'm not sure whether Grafana supports HTTPS natively, but I run it behind a reverse proxy anyway.
