I use a Docker compose file with both InfluxDB 2 and Telegraf and generated certificates as mentioned in the documentation but I do not get it to work with HTTPS.  
Also pinging as stated in the documentation on https does not work. It does work on https, but I need to supply a token (which is not mentioned) in the documentation:  
curl -vk [http://127.0.0.1:9999/api/v2/ping](http://127.0.0.1:9999/api/v2/ping) -H “Authorization: Token xxxxx”

_docker-compose.yaml:_  
version: “3.1”  
services:  
influxdb:  
container\_name: influxdb  
ports:  
- ‘9999:9999’  
image: ‘[Quay](http://quay.io/influxdb/influxdb:2.0.0-alpha)’  
restart: always  
environment:  
- INFLUX\_TOKEN=“xxxx”  
volumes:  
- influxdb:/var/lib/influxdb2  
- /etc/ssl:/etc/ssl  
command: influxd run --bolt-path /var/lib/influxdb2/influxd.bolt --engine-path /var/lib/influxdb2/engine --store bolt   
–reporting-disabled influxd   
–tls-cert “/etc/ssl/influxdb-selfsigned.crt”   
–tls-key “/etc/ssl/influxdb-selfsigned.key”

```
telegraf:
  container_name: telegraf
  image: 'telegraf'
  restart: always
  environment:
    - INFLUX_TOKEN="xxxxx
  volumes:
    - telegraf:/etc/telegraf

```

volumes:  
influxdb:  
telegraf:

Any suggestions what I am doing wrong?  
Can I see if the certifcates are used or not? docker logs influxdb does not show anything.
