Hello, Joao,

Regarding your question on how you can configure the zscaler certificate to do database connection, the Cloud SQL Auth proxy works by having a local client running in the local environment. Your application communicates with the Cloud SQL Auth proxy with the standard database protocol used by your database. See.

The Cloud SQL Auth proxy automatically encrypts traffic to and from the database using TLS 1.3 with a 256-bit AES cipher. SSL certificates are used to verify client and server identities, and are independent of database protocols; you won't need to manage SSL certificates. See. 

Having said that, please note that Zscaler products are not within my area of expertise, and this has been a best-effort support from me as it's not strictly related to the GCP side.
