To enable HTTPS for AWX, you should use Ingress with TLS configuration.

Create TLS Secret first,

> **[Secrets](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/secret/#tls-secrets)**
>
> A Secret is an object that contains a small amount of sensitive data such as a password, a token, or a key. Such information might otherwise be put in a Pod specification or in a container image. Using a Secret means that you don't need to include...

then specify following three lines for AWX CR and apply it.

```yaml
---
spec:
  ...
  ingress_type: ingress
  ingress_tls_secret: <your tls secret>
  hostname: <your fqdn>
  ...

```

Refer to the AWX Operator docs for details for the specs:
