!!! Warning This is an Expert Parameter! Only change it if you understand what it does!

Path to the Client Key file.

This is part of the configuration to enable TLS 1.2 for MQTT.

The Client Key is used by the client to prove its identity to the server, in conjunction with the Client Certificate. It is the second part of the MTLS handshake.

Usually there is a one pair of Client Certificate/Key for each client that connects to the MQTT broker

For more information on how to create your own certificate, see: mosquitto.org or emqx.com.

!!! Note If set, ClientCert must be set too. This also means that you might have to change the protocol and port in uri to mqtts://example.com:8883!
