Here is what the error is:
botocore.exceptions.SSLError: SSL validation failed for https://<redacted>/clearml/.clearml.test [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1131)
And here is the applicable configuration in clearml.conf:

` sdk {
aws {
s3 {
key: "<redacted>"
secret: "<redacted>"
host: "<redacted>"

        credentials: [
            {
                bucket: "clearml"
                host: "<redacted>"
                key: "<redacted>"
                secret: "<redacted>"
                multipart: false
                secure: true
             }
        ]
    }
}
development {
    default_output_uri: "s3://<redacted url matching host above>/clearml"
}

} `
based on iterations before, I was getting issues reaching the minio server, I have rectified that and now its an ssl issue, but I have no idea what is misconfigured as awscli and boto3 both work fine when run within the same container to put/get objects from the same server and bucket
