Description
Description
I have a problem with a reading a secret from a vault by salt server via SSL.
Here is error from salt master:

SSLError: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:877)
When I do the same but from minion jenkins, there is no problem.
Command on minion:

and I get good secret from vault.

Any ideas?
Please be as specific as possible and give set-up details.
