Describe the bug
While trying to add SSL certificates using DNS and OVH it fails with message:
ERROR:certbot._internal.log:TypeError: create_record() got an unexpected keyword argument 'type'

A quick fix (saw in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/67536198/got-an-error-while-trying-to-create-ssl-certificate-on-ovh-vps-server) was to change "type" to "rtype" in the lines
self.provider.create_record(type='TXT', name=record_name, content=record_content)
and
self.provider.delete_record(type='TXT', name=record_name, content=record_content)

inside the file:

/opt/certbot/lib64/python3.7/site-packages/certbot/plugins/dns_common_lexicon.py

inside the container.

Duplicate of https://github.com/jc21/nginx-proxy-manager/issues/1092. we'll have to wait for a new version of certbot. Then you'll have to either recreate the docker container or connect into it and manually update certbot.
