SSL

On the SSL page, you can manage your existing SSL certificates, add new certificates, or generate certificate signing requests (CSRs). The page is divided into two tabs: Overview and CSR Generator.

Overview

In the “Overview” tab, you will see a tabular display of all SSL certificates and CSRs stored in your customer account.

Features

• Search function: You can use the search bar to search specifically for SSL certificates or CRSs (e.g. by searching for the domain).

• Add SSL certificate: The “Add SSL certificate” button takes you to a separate page where you can securely upload an existing SSL certificate to CloudHub.

• Edit SSL certificate: You can update an existing certificate by clicking on the “Edit” button in the respective table row. This will take you to the “Edit SSL certificate” page.

Add SSL certificate

On this page, you can securely upload an existing SSL certificate to CloudHub.

Form fields

Edit SSL certificate

If you edit an existing SSL certificate via the overview, you will be taken to the “Edit SSL certificate” page.

• Certificate chain: Update the associated certificate chain

Both fields also offer the option of uploading files.

CSR Generator

In the “CSR Generator” tab, you can generate a certificate signing request (CSR) to apply for a new SSL certificate from a certification authority.

Fields for creating a CSR

• Select account: Select the customer account for which the CSR is to be created.

  • For multi-domain certificates, enter the domains as a comma-separated list (e.g. example.com,www.example.com,shop.example.com)

Once created, the CSR will be displayed in the Overview. We will also provide you with instructions on how to use various tools to create a private key from the CSR.
