SSL Certificates on webshops have been managed manually until now. This process is not error proof and can lead to incidents when certificates are not renewed in time.
A new process for automating this management and providing a dashboard has been devised. It is explained here.
With a valid SSL certificate, please isolate the three main certificate parts:
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
(Your Primary SSL certificate: your_domain_name.crt)
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
(Your Intermediate certificate: DigiCertCA.crt)
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
(Your Root certificate: TrustedRoot.crt)
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
Insert them in the certificate entry form
When uploading the new certificate the date is parsed from SSL certificate. If this is not possible a date is ask for.
The whole process is explained in the video below
Open the Point of Sales interface, select a Sales Channel and select "SSL Management"
Select one of two choices:
Certificates can be managed directly in the certificates window where expiration dates are displayed.
Alerts are also displayed on the back office when a certificate is expired
In case you need to create a SSL certificate for App
Get an Apple merchant certificate from Apple
Click on "New" and "Apple Merchant identity" and store the certificate there
This will store the merchant certificate on the /wellknown path for Apple to see. Apple will provide you a SSL certificate in return
