Is there anyway to create a friendly URL for AWS Elasticsearch domain url?

Question

I tried creating a Route 53 alias record but that didn't work.

Answer 1

It is possible as of November 2020:

1. Choose Edit domain.
2. To add a Custom endpoint, select the Enable custom endpoint check box.
3. For Custom hostname, enter your preferred custom endpoint hostname. Your custom endpoint hostname should be a fully qualified domain name (FQDN), such as www.yourdomain.com or example.yourdomain.com.
4. For AWS certificate, choose the SSL certificate that you want to use for your domain.

Answer 2

We don’t support custom SSL certificates, which means that a custom CNAME for an Elasticsearch Service endpoint such as mycluster.mycompanyname.example also is not supported.

Answer 3

It is still not possible on September 2020:
