We’re working on an agenda and fielding topic requests from you, the community using this survey

Greetings from Infra Server.

- Fixed an issue where Chef Infra Server failed to reindex nodes with SSL-enabled Nginx using chef-server-ctl reindex --all-orgs and managed with Chef Automate because SSL certificates were not sent.
