I am looking for instructions on how to setup HAProxy 3.3.6 to get wildcard certificates from Let's Encrypt. Any help is appreciated.

Hello @dafitt,

Presently that requires the DNS-01 challenge
Challenge Types - Let's Encrypt.

Perhaps a better starting point would be the HAProxy docs. This might be a good place to start:

Thank you for your response. I was hoping for instructions using the new built-in ACME features that are included in HAProxy v3.3.x. I have searched the Internet for hours and have not come up with anything.

That sounds like a question that would be better asked on their support channels--this forum isn't support for HAProxy.

Why do you need wildcard certs? From a brief look at the docs that fellow volunteers posted it looks like HAProxy is doing a form of "just in time" certs for the defined domain names. It should easily handle discrete names using the much simpler http-01 challenge.

I also agree with my fellow volunteers that asking HAProxy support/forum about this is a better plan. They know their product better than most of us here. We don't see HAProxy that much here although it is possible some volunteers have personal experience with it.
