https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/associate-acm-certificate-alb-nlb/

Configuring an Amazon Issued ACM public certificate for a website that's hosted on an EC2 instance requires exporting the certificate. However, you can't export the certificate because ACM manages the private key that signs and creates the certificate.

Instead, you can associate an ACM certificate with a load balancer or an ACM SSL/TLS certificate with a CloudFront distribution. Associate an ACM SSL certificate with an Application Load Balancer

Open the Amazon EC2 console.

In the navigation pane, choose Load Balancers, and then choose your Application Load Balancer.

Choose Add listener.

For Protocol, choose HTTPS.

For port, choose 443.

For Default action(s), choose Forward to, and then select your ALB target group from the dropdown list. For Default SSL certificate, choose From ACM (recommended) and then choose the ACM certificate.

Choose Save.
