[General Issue]: FORTINET does SSL inspection - Self-Signed Certs Issue

Describe the issue

Simple enough, Fortinet Firewall is doing certificate inspection whenever i connect to my pivpn server...SO bye bye self-sign certificates because it keeps retrying to connect (yes, the server is working without issues on other networks without Fortinet)
So, i guess the only way to circumvent this is by using LetsEncrypt certificates but i've read around the github that it's not feasible.
I've already got a certificate from certbot (standalone) my question is, what options can/should i change around server.conf?

ca /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/pki/ca.crt
cert /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/pki/issued/
key /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/pki/private/

Im guessing this ones...am i wrong?
Thanks in advance!

Expected behavior

Using another cert rather than a self-signed.
