WPA-WPA2/Enterprise issues

I can connect to this wifi network via:

sudo systemctl stop NetworkManager
sudo wpa_supplicant -B -i wlan0 -c wifi_secure.conf
sudo dhclient wlan0

With wifi_secure.conf being:

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
network={
    ssid="WiFi Secure"
    key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
    eap=PEAP
    identity="REDACTED"
    anonymous_identity="REDACTED"
    password="REDACTED"
    phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
    ca_cert="/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt"
    domain_suffix_match="REDACTED"
}

But when I try to connect via network manager config:
/etc/Networkmanager/system-connections/Wifi Secure-(UUID HERE).nmconnection

[connection]
id=Wifi Secure
uuid=c3164dcf-4110-4688-b729-e065190395a1
type=wifi

[wifi]
mode=infrastructure
ssid=Wifi Secure

[wifi-security]
key-mgmt=wpa-eap

[802-1x]
anonymous-identity=RETACTED
domain-suffix-match=RETACTED
eap=peap;
identity=RETACTED
password=RETACTED
phase2-auth=mschapv2

[ipv4]
method=auto

[ipv6]
addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy
method=auto

[proxy]

/etc/Networkmanager/system-connections/Wifi Secure-(UUID HERE)

[connection]
id=Wifi Secure
type=wifi

[wifi]
mode=infrastructure
ssid=Wifi Secure

[wifi-security]
key-mgmt=wpa-eap

[802-1x]
anonymous-identity=
ca-cert=/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
domain-suffix-match=REDACTED
eap=peap
identity=REDACTED
password=REDACTED
phase2-auth=mschapv2

[ipv4]
method=auto

[ipv6]
addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy
method=auto

It does not work

I don't understand what the difference is, I normally use networkmanager for everything but cannot seem to use it for this WPA/WPA2
