-With the Replicated SDK version 1.6.0 and later, you can serve traffic from the Replicated SDK pod by setting the `replicated.tlsCertSecretName` Helm value in your Helm chart.
+By default, the Replicated SDK serves its API over HTTP. With the Replicated SDK version 1.6.0 and later, you can serve the SDK API endpoints over HTTPS by providing a TLS certificate and key through the `tlsCertSecretName` value. This is useful if any of your enterprise customers require that communication between Kubernetes Pods occurs over HTTPS.
 
-To configure the Replicated SDK pod to serve traffic over SSL:
+**Requirement:** Serving the SDK API over HTTPS requires version 1.6.0 or later of the SDK.
 
-1. Ensure a secret exists in the namespace with keys `tls.crt` and `tls.key` containing the TLS certificate and key.
-This is the format produced by `kubectl create secret tls <secret_name> --cert=<cert_file> --key=<key_file>`.
+To serve SDK API endpoints over HTTPS:
 
-1. Set `tlsCertSecretName` to the name of the secret, as shown below:
+1. In the same namespace as the Replicated SDK, create a Kubernetes Secret with `tls.crt` and `tls.key` fields that contain the TLS certificate and key, respectively.
