The first argument to [`https.createServer`](https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v18.x/docs/api/https.html#httpscreateserveroptions-requestlistener) must be an SSL/TLS configuration. — Heiko Theißen, Jan 09 '23 at 16:55

createServer takes an options object that specifies the credentials and a middleware function that can be an express application.

const server = https.createServer(options, app);
server.listen(process.env.PORT, (req, res) => {
  console.log("hii")
})
