I have a network load balancer which redirects my request to an instance which has mqtt hosted on it and I have a python script which sends the traffic to the NLB. This is currently working on tcp and I want to make this connection secure so I have added a listener on port 8883 on my network load balancer and I have added acm certificate to it. Now I want to add this ACM certificate to my python script. How do I import this ACM certificate to my localsystem and add it to the python script?

Are you saying you are terminating TLS connections at the NLB and you want your client to trust the root CA for ACM certificates? – ydaetskcoR Oct 09 '20 at 10:10

AWS ACM public SSL certificates can't be exported.
If you require to have control of a private key from your SSL cert, you need to get it from a third party, not from ACM. A popular choice is https://letsencrypt.org/ which provides free SSL certificates.

How will I add these third party certificates to my network load balancer? – Akshay Jindal Oct 09 '20 at 09:40

@AkshayJindal You can import them to ACM. ACM supports importing, but not exporting the certs. – Marcin Oct 09 '20 at 10:26
