flask-mongoengine with ssl cert

I am building a flask app that will store data in MongoDB. For this I am using Flask-Mongoengine, now my problem is that I need to use a ssl_ca_cert and SSL=true for connecting to MongoDB. I am not able to find any documentation which says anything about this. I know with PyMongo we can use these options but I want to use it with Flask-Mongoengine. Is there any way I can do that? Any app.config[] parameter to set the ssl_ca_cert and ssl=True? Any help will be appreciated, thanks.

EDIT:

Something is mentioned here about these options but I am not able to figure out how to use them.

I believe you can use the URI string connection for this, i.e the MONGODB_HOST config parameter (see this for an example).

Something like:

app.config["MONGODB_HOST"] = "mongodb://user:password@hostname:port/db_name?ssl=true&ssl_cert_reqs=CERT_REQUIRED&ssl_ca_certs={your_cert_path}"
