in the documentation there is a var called ssl\_certificate

It implies that you give it a full path of the pem certificate public key + private key and then it will install. There is an issue in that if you have that var from my experience that the awx Web page will not load.  
There are issues raised around this saying that it will either be manually done or through a docker build.

What are your experiences with setting up ssl certification?

It you are running AWX via docker, his video is not bad:

If your AWX stack is already up and running, you will also have to destroy your awx\_web container and add port 443 in your docker-compose.yml file. Once the certs are created and your new port 443 is exposed you can restart/recreate the awx\_web container and access it via port 443.
