Hi,
You will get a generated certificate in a .pem file with a key or which consists of a ssl_certificate.crt IntermediateCA.crt file with the key. If you get .pem file, we can directly add the path of the file to the NGINX configuration as follows

ssl_certificate /etc/ssl/nginx/cert_bundle.pem;
cert_bundle.pem is the concatenated file of .crt files. If .pem file is not provided then we need to concatenate those files and add it to the path.
To concatenate the files,use the following code:  

cat ssl_certificate.crt IntermediateCA.crt >> bundle.crt
