+# SSL
+
+As part of the connection options, you can specify the `ssl` object property or a string containing the SSL profile content (**deprecated**).
+
+```ts
+ssl?: string | SslOptions;
+```
+
+See full list of [SslOptions](https://github.com/sidorares/node-mysql2/blob/master/typings/mysql/lib/Connection.d.ts#L24-L80), which are in the same format as [tls.createSecureContext](https://nodejs.org/api/tls.html#tls_tls_createsecurecontext_options).
+
+## SSL Options
+
+To enable SSL without manually providing certificates and assuming they are already trusted by the host machine, you can specify an empty object, for example:
+
+```ts
+const connection = await mysql.createConnection({
+  host: 'localhost',
+  ssl: {},
+});
+```
+
+You can also specify custom certificate(s) as an individual string or array of strings. Please note the arguments expect a string of the certificate, not a file name to the certificate:
+
+```ts
+import fs from 'node:fs';
+
+const connection = await mysql.createConnection({
+  host: 'localhost',
+  ssl: {
+    ca: fs.readFileSync(__dirname + '/mysql-ca.crt'),
+  },
+});
+```
+
+When a certificate is read from an environment variable, it's recommended to replace escaped `\n` characters with proper new line characters, for example:
+
+```ts
+const connection = await mysql.createConnection({
+  host: 'localhost',
+  ssl: {
+    ca: process.env.DB_SSL_CA?.replace(/\\n/gm, '\n'),
+  },
+});
+```
+
+## SSL Certificate Bundle
+
+Alternatively, you can use a bundle with CA certificates. For example for Amazon RDS you could use:
+
+```ts
+import awsCaBundle from 'aws-ssl-profiles';
+
+const connection = await mysql.createConnection({
+  host: 'db.id.ap-southeast-2.rds.amazonaws.com',
+  ssl: awsCaBundle,
+});
+```
+
+For detailed instructions, please follow [aws-ssl-profiles](https://github.com/mysqljs/aws-ssl-profiles) documentation.
+
+## SSL Profile (deprecated)
+
+There is also a **deprecated option** allowing to specify a string containing name of SSL profile:
+
+```ts
+const connection = await mysql.createConnection({
+  host: 'localhost',
+  ssl: 'Amazon RDS',
+});
+```
+
+Following profiles are included in the package:
+
+- `Amazon RDS` - in this case https://s3.amazonaws.com/rds-downloads/mysql-ssl-ca-cert.pem CA cert is used
+
+## Ignoring Unauthorized SSL Errors
+
+You can also connect to a MySQL server without providing an appropriate CA to trust. **This is highly discouraged** as being insecure.
+
+```ts
+const connection = await mysql.createConnection({
+  host: 'localhost',
+  ssl: {
+    // Beware, set `rejectUnauthorized` as `false` is strongly discouraged for security reasons:
+    rejectUnauthorized: false,
+  },
+});
+```
