Hi,

I have my dgraph server running in Kubernetes HA config. Using dgraph java client to connect to the dgraph server to do mutations and query ,

1. Do i need to use dgraph\_client\_cert , dgraph\_client\_private\_key, dgraph\_client\_public\_key, dgraph\_alpha\_endpoint for connection? if so could you please share the code snippet for java client

2. Or Just by using dgraph\_alpha\_endpoint and port (9080) is enough to make the connection?
