Issues Related to SSL Certificate Uploading

Which Format Is Required of a Certificate to Be Uploaded to SCM?

Currently, only certificates in the PEM format can be uploaded to SCM.

Certificates in other formats can be uploaded only after being converted into those in the PEM format. For details, see How Do I Convert a Certificate into the PEM Format?

Can I Download an Uploaded Certificate?

Your uploaded digital certificate and private key will be encrypted and stored on Huawei Cloud. You cannot download the certificate and private key again. Therefore, back up and store your private key.

Is the Use of Certificate on the Original Platform Affected After Uploading?

No. Uploading a certificate does not affect the use of it on the original platform.

Certificate uploading can be regarded as copying a local certificate to Huawei Cloud. The copy operation does not affect the use of the certificate.

Why Is a Message Indicating That the Website Is Insecure After the Certificate Is Uploaded to SCM?

After a certificate is uploaded, you need to deploy the certificate on the corresponding cloud product and complete required configuration.

In SCM, you can deploy an SSL certificate to WAF, ELB, or CDN in just a few clicks. With SSL certificates, data access through the cloud products is more secure.
