SSL Errors with HTTPoison about elasticsearch-elixir HOT 5 CLOSED

We should add an hackney_options configuration setting to Elasticsearch. This would allow you to pass the ssl: [{:versions, [:'tlsv1.2']}] settings that are working for you.

@collegeimprovements What version of Elasticsearch are you running?

from elasticsearch-elixir.

We are on Elasticsearch-5.5.

from elasticsearch-elixir.

This error occurs when the certificate authority for the target url is unknown to Hackney. Is it a self-signed certificate?

Yes. It seems like we have self signed certificates. Is there any workaround for this issue ?
[ e.g. we are able to hit HTTPoison queries with the above mentioned ssl option. ]
Or there is no simple workaround apart from asking people who host ElasticSearch to provide certificate files!?
