MQTT Certificate Instructions on how to setup MQTT with a certificate in Home Assistant. mqtt.png

Using certificates will give you an additional layer of security for your MQTT communication.

To integrate MQTT with certificate into Home Assistant, add the following section to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
mqtt:
  certificate: /home/paulus/dev/addtrustexternalcaroot.crt

{% configuration %} certificate: description: "'auto' or the certificate authority certificate file that is to be treated as trusted by this client. To enable a secure (TLS) connection to your server you must define the 'certificate' configuration parameter. 'auto' uses the certifite CAs bundled certificates. If a file is specified the file should contain the root certificate of the certificate authority that signed your broker's certificate, but may contain multiple certificates. Example: /home/user/identrust-root.pem." required: false type: string client_key: description: Client key, e.g., /home/user/owntracks/cookie.key. required: false type: string client_cert: description: Client certificate, e.g., /home/user/owntracks/cookie.crt. required: false type: string {% endconfiguration %}
